Dear Readers,

We hope you’re all settling back into work after a well-deserved summer break. As you will see below, the month ahead will be a busy one!

In this newsletter we are bringing you (as promised) our recently published report on the ‘Coordinators & Action Leaders’ Meeting 2020: a renewed impetus for the Urban Agenda for the EU’ where you can read about the main highlights from the event during which Coordinators and Action Leaders of all the UAEU Partnerships discussed the future direction of the UAEU.

Furthermore, we are delighted to announce the launch of our LinkedIn page! Please follow us, get in touch, and we look forward to connecting with you there!

Through this newsletter we are also excited to announce that registrations for the 18^th European Week of Regions and Cities are open until the 27 September! In this fully virtual edition, over 500 digital working sessions will be offered from 5-22 October, covering various topics under the thematic priorities of Empowering Citizens, Cohesion and Cooperation, and Green Europe. Some of our Partnerships have confirmed workshops, and we've identified a few other sessions of interest to our urban stakeholders, see more below! In addition to the above, you'll find the usual relevant news, publications and events.

Happy reading!
