In less than ten years, a corporate property market has emerged in Wallonia. This market first covered offices and retail units and recently extended to semi-industrial establishments. Its development is largely related to the creation of a new type of demand resulting from the growth of new service activities and from new expectations regarding physical units, environment, accessibility and location choices – on both sub-regional and local scales. It has been favoured by the appearance of new property stakeholders, Belgians as well as foreigners (developers, investors and estate agents), but also by public authorities (the Walloon Region and economic development supra-communal agencies). This market’s emergence is related to the deepening of territorial contrasts as property development projects usually reinforce strong areas. [less ▲]

In this article, we’ll be wondering about the point, the challenges and the limits of integrating competences in Higher Education, starting from three experiences lead in Urban and Economic Geography. For this purpose, we’ve managed to combine works from Higher Education specialists and observations from the field. This reflection has been built in three stages. First, we’ll be reminding the foundations and specificities of the competence based approach. Then, we’ll be analysing our three experiences with the help of a common grid allowing us to successively consider the original needs and motivations, the process design, its trial and its adjustment. Finally, we’ll be trying to draw conclusion in terms of impacts on the students learning process, and impacts on the way teachers approach their teaching process, its limits and constraints.

The aim of the paper is to analyse how office markets are in interaction with the evolutions in the field of territory and economy. The first part of the paper analyses the data available to study the office stocks. Afterwards, we present an urban hierarchy based on the office equipment, in relation with the process of metropolization and its location consequences. The last part of the paper shows that the office function is also concerned with the process of periurbanization. [less ▲]
