 ------------------------------------------------------------------
 
 
 
 The spatial processes affecting the sustainable development of our
 living environment are of a supra-national and even a global scale.
 Geo-ICT plays an increasing role in the management of these processes.
 We also see the development of global delivery networks for Geo-ICT
 products and services. Partners in these chains must have a common
 understanding of the specifications and conditions for product and
 service delivery.
 
 Young people in particular should be stimulated to choose for a
 professional career in this field. They should form part of an
 international professional community ready to engage and collaborate
 with their highly qualified and experienced colleagues for life-long
 learning.
 
 International partnerships and consortia for cross border education
 provide a new setting for the education in this context. Web-based
 education and distance learning approaches and e-delivery of educational
 services are developing very fast. Partnerships for developing of
 international curricula require the possibility of the transfer of
 credit points between educational institutions.
