The Macro-Regional and Sea Basin Strategies Days 2024, co-organised by the Directorate-General for Regional and Urban Policy (DG REGIO) and the Directorate-General for Maritime Affairs and Fisheries (DG MARE), promises an exclusive on-site experience at The Egg, Brussels from June 12 to 13, 2024. This year's event is poised to be a game-changer, focusing on the four Macro-regional strategies (Alpine, Danube, Adriatic-Ionian, Baltic) and the three Sea Basin Strategies (Atlantic, Western Mediterranean, and Black Sea). The overarching theme, embodied by the hashtag #Strategies4cooperation, underscores the collaborative spirit that will define the discussions, workshops, and interactions throughout the event.
Opening and closing of the event will see the participation of Elisa Ferreira, Commissioner for Cohesion and Reforms, Themis Christophidou, Director General for DG REGIO, and Charlina Vitcheva, Director General for DG MARE.
The event will feature interactive workshops focusing on key thematic areas, aligning with the overarching objectives of the seven strategies:
In a plenary session dedicated to young voices, participants will witness the vibrant ideas of the next generation, offering their perspectives on the European Union.
A unique feature of this event is the speed-dating moment, where stakeholders will have the opportunity to engage in rapid, purposeful conversations with their counterparts from various European Commission services. This dynamic interaction aims to foster collaboration, spark innovative ideas, and build connections that transcend bureaucratic boundaries.
