The Committee of the Regions is co-organising with the European Commission the “Conference on European Missions” on 25 November, 9:30-12:15. The aim of the conference is to launch the implementation of EU Missions and to explore the EU Climate Adaptation Mission and the Cities Mission in more detail in a debate with members of the Committee of the Regions and city representatives. For the Cities Mission in particular, we hope to be able to publish the call for Expression of Interest addressed to cities on the same day, so the event will be an opportunity to explain how the call will work and what the next steps are. All information about the event can be found here: Conference on European Missions (europa.eu)

The conference will be in a hybrid format and you are invited to join remotely via the Interactio platform. Interpretation into English, French, German and Polish will be provided. The link will be sent to registered participants: REGISTER HERE

You can also watch the event in a webstream, without the need to register: Watch the event​

The Info Kit for Cities as well as the FAQ document that we published at the end of last month will help you get ready for the Call for Expression of Interest. You can find both documents at this link: https://ec.europa.eu/info/news/mission-climate-neutral-and-smart-cities-info-kit-cities-now-available-2021-oct-29_en

Cities can already pre-register for the Call for Expression of Interest.
