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 />
