Strong regions, strong Europe

Under this year’s motto, Strong regions, strong Europe, The European Week of Regions and Cities will bring together stakeholders from cities and regions across Europe. In Brussels in October, they will showcase their capacity to create growth and jobs, implement European Union Cohesion policy, and prove the importance of the local and regional level for good European governance.

The European Week of Regions and Cities is organised by the European Commission's Directorate-General for Regional and Urban Policy and the European Committee of the Regions.
