In less than two weeks the 18th European Week of Regions and Cities will kick off, for the first time ever as a virtual-only event.
The European Week of Regions and Cities is an annual four-day event during which cities and regions showcase their capacity to create growth and jobs, implement European Union cohesion policy, and prove the importance of the local and regional level for good European governance. This year, the European Week of Regions and Cities is spreading over three consecutive weeks, each dedicated to one timely topic: Empowering Citizens, Cohesion & Cooperation, Green Europe.
While some of the sessions will be web streamed in real time and open to public, most of the sessions will only be accessible to a restricted number of participants.
So have a look at the rich programme and do not forget to register on time, that is before this Sunday!

SMART WASTE already noted down the participatory lab on Reuse and Repair in a circular economy to learn more about reuse and repair initiatives and their impact on a circular and social economy. It will be on 13 October 2020 from 14:30-16:00 CEST.
Why not join also Cities fostering the circular transition? This workshop on 15 October 2020 from 09:30-11:00 is co-organised by one of our partners, ACR+, together with Bwcon Gmbh, and Technical University of Kosice. The second topic tackled will offer solutions on how to measure and monitor circularity at local and regional level. It will highlight two examples of approaches aiming to go beyond weight-based indicators, and better reflecting the environmental impact of local circular economy strategies.
