The 19th edition of the #EURegionsWeek ‘Together for Recovery’ took place virtually between 11 and14 October.
This four-day event gave the opportunity to cities and regions to showcase their ability to generate economic growth and jobs, implement European Union cohesion policy, and demonstrate the importance of local and regional governance in good European governance.
One of the 300 sessions was hosted by 4 EU Green Capital (Lahti, Grenoble) and EU Green Leaf (Lappeenranta, Växjö) winning cities: How can green cities lead the way to European recovery?
