The fifth edition of EUobserver’s Regions and Cities Magazine explores visions for future cities and learns lessons from the past.

“The EU is grappling with difficult problems – Brexit, migration, and the economy to name a few – but despite the gloomy pall over EU affairs, lots of European cities are investing and reinventing themselves.”

Cities are an important part of European regions and AER often tackles the interlinkages between urban and rural ares. The EU observer magazine illustrates many of the challenges facing Europe’s cities and how they are shaping their future.
