In 2006, the EU and China established the Regional Policy Dialogue. This initiative aims at sharing experiences in regional policy as a key element for achieving a bal-anced and sustainable economic development in both regions. In 2010 the dialogue partners launched CETREGIO, Chinese European Training on Regional Policy. The programme aims at delivering European experiences to Chinese experts during the preparation of the 12th Five-Year Plan.
This two-week information and training course in regional policy proposed and imple-mented by the Academy of European Law (ERA) focused on regional disparities, re-gional policy and legislation and statistical information systems. The course was aimed at providing insights into European experiences in these fields. It was not intended to provide tailor-made solutions for the Chinese reality but rather to offer Chinese experts a source of reference when developing future regional policy measures.
