We are a network
Multiple times per year, AER brings together regions, so that they may stand stronger together, and grow in a space of best practice exchange.
[REGISTRATIONS ARE OPEN] Regions Shaping Europe’s Future | Autumn Bureau & Working Groups
3 December - 4 December
At its Autumn meeting, the AER Bureau will pave the way for a strategic discussion on the interests of regions in an evolving European landscape.
The Autumn Bureau meeting will take place on 3 December 2024, the Working Groups on 4 December 2024.
By bringing together regional representatives, political leaders and EU policymakers, the AER Bureau will explore how regions can position their interests within the new EU policy leadership to shape policies consistent with their priorities. The discussion will focus on aligning regional strategies with the evolving political direction and priorities, ensuring regions are recognised as crucial partners in the policy-making process.
The event will include hands-on workshops by the AER Working Groups on Green Hydrogen and on Mental Health. These meetings will be crucial for sharing grassroots expertise, bring together committed policymakers to learn from each other, reinforcing the role of regions in Europe as key drivers of a sustainable future.
Participants will also have the option of joining visits to different EU institutions and advisory bodies to gain insights on their new asset and priorities after the EU elections of June 2024. These optional visits will take place in the context of the Erasmus+ project Climbing the Ladder (CL-YE) and will welcome up to 15 AER members each.
