Abstract

This chapter presents the concept ‘place-based co-production’ (PBCP) as a specific approach to co-production of services. PBCP is co-production in a geographically limited area, aiming at improving the quality and services of the locality (physical, social, economic). The authors present two examples from the Danish area-based urban regeneration programme (a small town in a rural area, and a district in Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark) to illustrate characteristics of PBCP. In spite of the different contexts, the process and outcome in the two examples have several similarities: strong commitment amongst the involved actors, a high degree of co-financing as well as attraction of external funding and creation of synergy across the different local contributions. From this, the authors encourage pursuing the potentials of PBCP in other types of service production.
