NSC is one of the 6 greographical commisions under CPMR. (The Conference of Peripheral Maritime Regions)that brings together around 160 Regions. Being located along Europe’s shoreline brings both advantages and specific difficulties, so some 160 Regions have come together to form the Conference of Peripheral Maritime Regions of Europe (CPMR).
They are from 28 countries and represent almost 200 million people. They work together to ensure that EU institutions and national governments take account of their common interests, and cooperate on practical projects in order to enhance their assets.
