Green Living Areas Mission presented to POLIS Mediterranean stakeholders

05/11/2024

The Green Living Areas Mission was featured in the programme of the joint meeting of POLIS’ Small and Medium-Sized Cities Platform (SMC) and Regions Working Group, which took place from 25 to 27 September 2024 in Vic, Spain.  

This event brought together municipal and regional representatives from the Mediterranean (and beyond) to address shared challenges in sustainable mobility governance, focusing on practical cooperation and resource sharing. It included presentations, discussions roundtables and site visits underscoring mobility challenges, particularly for small and medium-sized cities that often face resource constraints. 

The Green Living Areas Mission was featured on the last day of the meeting, with a presentation on its main objectives, particularly on the process and benefits of joining the 1st Institutional Dialogue – in Brussels in October 2024 -, but also future editions of policy exchanges. The Thematic Working Group on Green Mobility was presented in detail, as the most relevant for the stakeholders present.  

The participation in the event allowed us to establish fruitful contacts for exchanges with Mediterranean Small and Medium-Sized Cities and Regions, for future exchanges in the scope of the Green Living Areas Institutional Dialogues.
