To underline the needs of the border regions and their citizens, the European Committee of the Regions (CoR) has just launched the European Cross-Border Platform (ECBP), the successor of the European Grouping of Territorial Cooperation (EGTC) Platform, which aims to gather all actors in cross-border cooperation from border cities and regions to EGTCs and Euroregions.
The newly established Platform aims to create a new place for cross-border stakeholders to meet and discuss border communities' unique circumstances and needs, allowing them to engage with the EU institutions through the European Committee of the Regions.
The CoR continues its work with the EGTCs as it has and will continue to support the existing EGTCs and those in creation. EGTC meetings will continue to be organised yearly, with the next one on 20 September in Luxembourg.
The work on EGTCs will be an integral part of the work of the new Platform, and consequently, all the EGTCs are invited to participate in it. There is no need for EGTCs to subscribe to the new platform.
