Introduction During the Founding Meeting of the Working Party MILU (held in Amsterdam May 2000), the Norwegian participants already committed themselves to host the meeting of the IFHP Working Party MILU in 2001. This would be the first of a series of study visits to implement the desired exchange of practical experiences and knowledge on multifunctional and intensive land use. The motivation to do so, could be found in the huge restructuring tasks that the Municipality of Oslo is facing in the coming 10 years in the Bjørvika area and at the same time the growing concern for the deterioration it faces in the Groruddalen Valley when it would leave the developments without intervention. This concern is reflected in the broad support that was given to the organisation of this Oslo Meeting. A series of Norwegian Institutions took part in sponsoring this study visit. The Ministry of Local Government and Regional Development of Norway. The Ministry of the Environment of Norway. The Norwegian Association for Housing and Regional Planning, were besides the Municipality of Oslo the main sponsors. As the Dutch government takes great interest in the development of new knowledge and concepts related to MILU, it actively supports the activities of the IFHP Working Party MILU in facilitating it with means and organisation capacity. The foundation HABIFORUM and the Dutch Ministry on Housing Spatial Planning and the Environment, both initiators and sponsors of the IFHP Working Party MILU have generously sponsored the Oslo meeting as well. The Institute for Spatial Planning and Environmental Sciences of the Saxion Hogeschool IJselland a Dutch University for Professional Education situated in Deventer, has whole heartedly furnished the Working Party MILU with secretarial support, so essential for the preparation of gatherings that demand accurateness and persistence. The study visit that is reported here, had besides the above mentioned Bjørvika area and the Groruddalen Valley, as central topic, the design of processes in which private and public participants collaborate financially and functionally, to bring the tasks of changing the city outlooks to a good end. Much work has been done by the Preparatory Committee whose members deserve great gratitude for their efforts to make the Oslo Meeting a success. Jorn Skaare, Arne Heilemann, Andreas Ivar Hoivik and especially Kari Kiil are to be mentioned as having given precious time to bring the plan together. During the workshop sessions much depended on the shrewdness of the chairpersons. Our special thanks goes to Ole Falk Frederikson, Anne Sigrid Hamran, and Berit Nordahl. Greg Gabriel, Anke Loska, Brede Norderud contributed greatly to the drawing up the findings of the workshop sessions. The benevolent support of the City Commissioner for Business Development and Urban Development, Mrs Ann Kathrine Tornås and the kind invitation of the Mayor of the City of Oslo to an official dinner, were unique experiences and made all participants aware of the high expectations that had to be fulfilled. It is to the participants and the readers of this report to determine whether these are met. Huibert A. Haccoû Chairman IFHP Working Party MILU, Deventer 9 June 2001 3.
