The EU Regions’ Week benefits from high media attention all around Europe, with some 130 journalists from the Member States coming to attend the event every year. They follow a specifically designed media programme, aimed at enabling the media to make the most of their time in the Week. There is a focus on meetings with relevant stakeholders, which allow the journalists to see the faces behind Cohesion Policy, be they commissioners, European Commission experts or authorities from the Member States, as well as the many cohesion stories that show the real value of our policy for Europe. This year we continue last edition’s successful programme dedicated to young journalists: Youth4Regions. Nearly 20 young European journalists or students get to learn during the EURegionsWeek what it takes to become a journalist covering Cohesion Policy. The aim is to enable the development of the next generation of journalists specialized in Cohesion Policy.
