The 19th edition of the European Week of Regions and Cities -the most important event on EU Regional Policy- is taking place between 11 and 14 of October. For four days cities, regions, programmes and European Institutions showcase, in more than 100 workshops and debates, their capacity to create growth and jobs, implement European Union cohesion policy and support recovery in Europe. The workshops are divided according to the four themes of the week: Green Transition, Cohesion, Digital transition and Citizens engagement.

ESPON is once again present with many projects that are organising events and presenting their results and evidence. You can select from the list below and register online today
