A strong, efficient and united European Union is the best guarantee for peace, freedom and prosperity of its people. Our citizens want an EU that meets their expectations and demonstrates an added value in their daily lives based on local, regional and national needs and realities.Local and regional authorities implement about 70% of all EU legislation and are responsible for one third of public spending and two thirds of all public investment. They represent a highly trusted level of governance, well suited to shape and deliver a more prosperous and inclusive Europe that protects and empowers its citizens.The two panels of this event will focus on the EU's added value for people's daily life and on the the local and regional dimension of EU politics: reconnecting withcitizens.Download below the draft agenda of the event for more details.
