Steering Committee

The steering committee, chaired by Saxony-Anhalt’s Min ister of Regional Development and Transport, Karl-Heinz Daehre, made the decisions on the acceptance of the IBA towns and cities and their relevant themes or projects, in so far as they were already known. The steering committee also made decisions about the further development and man- agement of the IBA Urban Redevelopment 2010. Repre sen- tatives of the steering committee also became important players in the annual evaluation of the projects in the IBA towns and cities. This committee met twice a year and was comprised of representatives of the state ministries, asso- ciations, as well as independent consultants.
