The guiding principles for the sustainable territorial development of the European continent take into account, in the sense of the concept of sustainable development, the needs of all the inhabitants of the European regions without compromising the fundamental rights of the future generations. By respecting the principles of land use planning and urbanism, it contributes to sustainable economic growth and job creation, as well as to social and ecological development in all regions.
