Serving as the main entry point for cooperation carried out by Local and<br />

Regional Authorities (LRAs), the European Portal of Decentralised Cooperation<br />

exists to support the development work undertaken by LRAs. This session will<br />

introduce the wide array of tools the portal offers (Atlas, Bourse, Library,) and<br />

will show how they can best be used to support current and future development<br />

undertakings. It will underline how the portal facilitates the exchange of<br />

information between actors and promotes new partnerships among LRAs,<br />

thereby increasing the efficiency and effectiveness of development aid. Participants<br />

can learn how the portal can help put them in touch with partners<br />

and funding for projects and see how other projects have benefitted from their<br />

membership.<br />

Organised by the Committee of the Regions – CoR & the European Commission<br />
