CoR Open Days
Committee of the Regions Open Days 2011
The 9th Committee of the Regions Open Days- European Week of Regions and Cities will be held in Brussels between 10 – 13 October 2011. Together with the EU institutions, more than 200 regions and cites will contribute to a programme of 100 seminars, workshops, debates, exhibitions and networking opportunities for around 6,000 participants.
The 2011 Open Days will concentrate on three key themes: Europe 2020, Better Delivery and Geography Matters. Regions and cities will play a major role in the discussions on "EU2020" agenda, on the budget review, and on the future of EU cohesion policy post-2013. The Open Days are an ideal framework for them to showcase good practice in the field of strengthening regional competitiveness, territorial co-operation and social and economic cohesion, to share experiences with others and to impact on the political debates among EU institutions and Member States.
