European Committee of the Regions

Appeler Itinéraire Site Web

European Committee of the Regions The Committee of the Regions is the EU's assembly of regional and local representatives coming from all 27 Member States.

Read our Moderation Policy here: https://link.europa.eu/wcHKCq Established in 1994, the CoR was set up to address two main issues. Firstly, about three quarters of EU legislation is implemented at local or regional level, so it made sense for local and regional representatives to have a say in the development of new EU laws. Secondly, there were concerns that there was a widening gap between the public and the process of European integration; involving the elected level of government closest to the citizens was one way of closing the gap. Its 329 democratically elected members represent the sub-national level (i.e. regions, counties, provinces, municipalities and cities) and ensure that the communities they represent fully participate in the EU's decision-making process. The European Commission, the European Parliament and the Council are obliged to consult the Committee in policy areas affecting regions and cities. more information:

A racist sticker or a written threat on social media are not harmless forms of debate.

At a local level, a growing number of candidates and elected representatives report being increasingly subjected to abuse and intimidation.

Keeping public debate fair and safe is one of the objectives of the European Democracy Shield. Stephanie, a young politician from Saint-Job, Brussels, explains how.

On the International Day to End Impunity for Crimes against Journalists the war in Ukraine reminds us every day of the vital role journalists play in documenting the truth, exposing war crimes and fighting disinformation.👇Медіагрупа Накипіло

Today, we stand in solidarity with journalists who risk their lives to keep the world informed. Without press freedom, there can be no true democracy.

Independent journalism, press freedom and transparent reporting are fundamental pillars of democracy. They ensure accountability, protect freedom of expression and empower citizens with reliable information.

On 1 November 1993, the Maastricht Treaty entered into force, giving local and regional authorities an official voice in the EU through the creation of the European Committee of the Regions. 🇪🇺
 
Since then, Europe’s cities and regions have had a seat at the table, because Europe isn’t built only in Brussels: it’s built in town halls, regional councils, and communities across all 27 Member States.
 
More than 30 years on, our mission remains the same: bringing Europe closer to the people it serves.

🏘️ Europe’s housing challenge is not only social, it is also local. So are many of the solutions to address it.

Hear about one success story from Ireland, from our member, Cllr Kieran McCarthy , rapporteur on the recently adopted opinion on the new EU Agenda for Cities.

👇
Shandon’s historic neighbourhood was affected by vacancy and dereliction, putting its heritage at risk.

Cork City Council developed a New European Bauhaus-inspired strategy, with over 140 citizens helping identify priorities for regeneration.

This helped secure €7 million in ERDF THRIVE funding for housing, workplaces and community facilities, while protecting the area’s heritage and climate-proofing its future.
