“At no time has that solidarity been more important than it is now. The economic downturn and climate change – this year’s two greatest challenges – have shown just how crucial the regions are in tackling European and global challenges. It is the regions that support the EU’s 22 million SMEs, driving innovation and providing two-thirds of all jobs in the EU. And it is the regional and local levels that will implement 50 to 70% of climate change mitigation and adaptation actions in the future”,

Klaus Klipp, AER Secretary-General
