#EURegionsWeek 2017 UNIVERSITY SESSIONS
We are pleased to announce that the registration for the 2017 European Week of Regions and Cities (#EURegionsWeek 2017) is open (until 27th September 2017).
As part the 15th European Week of Regions and Cities (9-12 October 2017), there will be over 130 free workshops, networking events and project visits organised in Brussels. Under the 2017 title ‘Regions and cities working for a better future’ the programme will tackle three main themes:
- Building resilient regions and cities – #LocalResilience;
- Regions and cities as change agents – #TakeAction;
- Sharing knowledge to deliver results – #SharingKnowledge.
As in previous year’s, the RSA is again a key partner in the European Week of Regions and Cities and we are coordinating the #EURegionsWeek 2017 University sessions and EU Cohesion Policy Master Class. The latter is only open to successful applicants selected earlier this year.
How to sign up? The University sessions are free to attend but as places are limited we recommend to sign up as soon as possible to avoid disappointment.
