The Mountain Dimension of Cooperation Seminar

From: 31.10.2018 to: 31.10.2018

Mountain settlements are often isolated because of distance from urban or sub-urban hubs where services (education, health) and business or cultural opportunities can be widely accessed. Some of these settlements are cross-border in nature and therefore take the form of cross-border cooperation, mountain-range based cooperation or transnational/ interregional cooperation. Parallel thematic sessions on the role of EU policies, projects and experiences from mountainous areas governance models in mountainous regions will provide an opportunity to participants to learn from each other and consequently identify novel approaches which could help improve the situation in the future. 

This one-day seminar will bring together actors from cooperation projects, the EU Institutions and interest stakeholders to discuss how to foster the development of mountainous areas in the EU. The third workshop edition is organised by the DG REGIO, will take place on 9 November 2018 in Brussels. The goal of this seminar is to communicate that cooperation in mountain areas is essenital, it leads to concrete results and should be continued intensively in the future. 

You can register now by sending an email to [email protected]. Registrations close when maximum capacity is reached and in any case not later than 6th November.
