The Belgian Presidency of the Council of the EU wants to explore how to create more impact by building a bridge between these, serving better the needs of all local governments, creating stronger synergies, and integrating with regional supportive frameworks across the Union to make the Green Deal thrive in our communities. The ways of implementing solutions to reach the Green Deal’s ambition are countless, but they all have in common that they do take concrete shape locally: in our cities and municipalities. It’s high time to bring these local governments together.

The conference aims to highlight the way forward for the implementation of the EU Green Deal. What we need is a new multilevel governance framework, with bridges between the EU initiatives and more direct funding solutions. Be inspired during the conference by the best practices across Europe and share your own. Experience in-depth sessions with experts from the local to the European level.
