Cohesion in Rural Europe

1st June 2017 @ 10:00 am - 11:30 am

Thursday 1 June 2017

 

08:00-09:30,  European Parliament, Members’ Salon, Brussels

If Europe is to unlock the potential of all its territories while achieving its ambitious targets, a more complete and comprehensive strategy is needed. Join the RUMRA Intergroup as we discuss what lessons rural and urban areas can learn from the past, and how can future policies strengthen, rather than weaken, the economic, social and territorial cohesion of Europe. This breakfast briefing will discuss concrete policy options which are both on rural and urban agenda such as transport, connectivity, rural-urban relations, energy and climate change and others. Join us and lean what urban and rural challenges have in common and how to move forward to solve them in a coherent manner.
