The award ‘Building Europe across borders’ underlines the role of EGTCs as a lever for economic growth and job creation, environmental and nature protection. It also recognises their role as promotors of education, social inclusion, cultural heritage and European citizenship.
Cross-border cooperation, as part of European Territorial Cooperation, provides not only an added value to the border regions themselves, but to the EU as a whole: it gives citizens, businesses and public authorities a direct experience of being European.
🗨️ CoR member Pavel Branda, Chair of the European Cross-Border Platform:
This year, it has been 20 years since the EGTC regulation came into force and the annual meeting of the European Cross-Border Platform is a living testimony of our work and how far we've come.
