SAVE THE DATE: Join us at the 2nd Borders Forum – 21-22 June
- 25 January 2022
Organised in the context of the French Presidency of the Council of the European Union, the Borders Forum will be putting the spotlight on cross-border areas, which concern 40% of Europe and more than 2 million cross-border workers. Bringing together local, national, and European actors of cross-border cooperation, this event will highlight the place, the role, and the resilience of cross-border territories in Europe.
The Green Deal, the new Interreg programmes, the revision of the Schengen Border Code, the recent Franco-Italian Treaty of Quirinal, and the French 3DS law are all recent examples of the importance of border regions in the European and French political agendas.
You will be able to follow the event in French, English and German.
More information will be provided in the coming weeks.
