Agence des territoires
The Agence des territoires is a French public institution created to manage, revitalize and optimize territorial assets across metropolitan and overseas France; it sits at the intersection of national policy instruments such as the Ministry of Territorial Cohesion and regional instruments like Région Île-de-France. The agency coordinates with actors including the Caisse des Dépôts, the Direction régionale de l'environnement, de l'aménagement et du logement, and municipal authorities such as the Mairie de Paris to implement redevelopment programs inspired by precedents like the Agence nationale pour la rénovation urbaine and models from the European Investment Bank.
The agency was established in the context of reforms following debates in the Assemblée nationale and consultations involving the Conseil d'État and the Cour des comptes; its creation drew on experiences from bodies such as the Agence de l'environnement et de la maîtrise de l'énergie and the Agence nationale pour les chèques énergie. Early initiatives referenced projects like the Grand Paris Express, the Loi NOTRe regionalization framework, and the territorial strategies of the Conseil régional de Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur. Its formative years included partnerships with the Banque publique d'investissement and studies by the Institut national de la statistique et des études économiques to align asset management with demographic trends noted in the INSEE Demography Report.
The agency’s mandate encompasses land management, building reuse and optimization, and the redistribution of public property portfolios held by entities such as the Établissement public foncier networks, the Office national des forêts, and the Société nationale immobilière. Responsibilities include executing directives from the Ministry for the Ecological Transition, implementing clauses of the Loi SRU, and supporting objectives set by the Pacte national pour les territoires. It advises territorial actors including the Conseil départemental de la Gironde, the Métropole de Lyon, and the Collectivité territoriale de Corse to reconcile public estate strategies with infrastructure programs like the Plan France 2030 and transport schemes such as the SNCF Réseau modernization.
Governance arrangements involve oversight by ministers represented from the Ministry of Territorial Cohesion and the Ministry of the Economy and Finance, with board members drawn from stakeholders like the Caisse des Dépôts et Consignations, the Agence française de développement, and representatives from regional chambers such as the Chambre de commerce et d'industrie de Paris. Operational divisions mirror units found in institutions like the Direction générale des collectivités locales and the Agence nationale de cohésion des territoires, and internal procedures reflect audit practices of the Inspection générale des finances and the Haute Autorité pour la transparence de la vie publique.
Programs run by the agency include brownfield conversion schemes modeled on Opérations programmées d'amélioration de l'habitat, heritage asset valorization akin to initiatives by the Centre des monuments nationaux, and rural revitalization projects paralleling actions by the Mission Stéphane Bern. Initiatives often coordinate funding channels such as the European Regional Development Fund, credit instruments from the Banque européenne d'investissement, and technical assistance from the Agence nationale pour la formation professionnelle des adultes to implement pilot projects similar to the Quartiers fertiles and collaborative platforms like the Plateforme Territoriale.
At the regional level, the agency has been involved in redevelopment in areas comparable to the Métropole de Toulouse, regeneration efforts in the Havre Seine Métropole, and adaptive reuse projects in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region informed by case studies from the Agence d'urbanisme de Bordeaux. Projects often intersect with transport upgrades led by Régie Autonome des Transports Parisiens, coastal resilience work in Brittany connected to policies from the Agence de l'eau Seine-Normandie, and cultural site renewals similar to those overseen by the Centre national des arts plastiques.
The agency’s financing model combines appropriations from the Ministry of the Economy and Finance, co-financing from the Caisse des Dépôts et Consignations, grants from the Union européenne, and loans from institutions such as the Banque européenne d'investissement. Strategic partnerships include collaborations with regional authorities like the Conseil régional Grand Est, research institutes such as the Centre national de la recherche scientifique, and professional networks including the Union des Maisons de l'Architecture and the Association des Maires de France. Its programs leverage expertise from the Institut d'Aménagement et d'Urbanisme and procurement frameworks aligned with rules overseen by the Autorité des marchés financiers.
