PLATFORMA
Empowering Local and Regional Governments in global cooperation
Launched by CEMR in 2008, PLATFORMA is the pan-European coalition of towns and regions – and their national, EU and global associations – active in city-to-city and region-to-region development cooperation. A hub of expertise on European Local and Regional Governments’ international action, PLATFORMA is boosting local contribution to EU development cooperation policies and international frameworks.
PLATFORMA’s mission is to shape EU development policy and international agendas. Together with our partners, we defend the role of towns and regions in EU development policies and international fora.
We raise awareness, promote international cooperation between cities and regions across the world and boost capacity-building with our peers.
We provide a forum for collective intelligence, facilitating knowledge exchange, peer learning and experimentation of innovative approaches between towns and regions and their associations.
