Commission for Territorial Cohesion Policy and EU budget
From a socialist and progressive perspective, the COTER commission for Territorial Cohesion Policy and EU Budget deals with important topics for the future of regions and cities in Europe. European Structural and Investment Funds, cohesion in urban and rural areas, the territorial approaches, territorial cooperation and transport and urban policies are main drivers of change. They allow the implementation of integrated strategies based on the needs identified in cities and regions. Within the COTER commission, we focus on building a more cohesive Europe based on solidarity, ensuring that no people and no places are left behind.
