Dear Members of the Community of Practice on Cities,

Welcome to the 13th edition of our Newsletter.

It has been a period rich of activities for CoP Cities. We had our annual plenary, a special event on local taxes and the release of two new policy briefs. We hope you found them rich of inspirations and we are looking forward for your cooperation while we are scoping and drafting our next batch of contributions.

As usual, keep in mind that this is a bi-monthly publication, with a new edition foreseen for the end of July 2022. For any feedback on this edition, or contributions to the following one, including highlights of your current work, upcoming publications, or events, please let us know at jrc-kctp@ec.europa.eu.
