🤔 What comes first: Local and regional governments contributing to EU priorities, or the EU supporting local and regional priorities?

@ec.europa.eu, the Catalan Government and @lubicakarvasova.bsky.social

#FinalCallRegionsMFF

🔴 Ahead of tomorrow’s #EUbudget proposal, local leaders call to build on #RRF lessons:

💬 "It’s not just how much, but how and with whom those resources will be planned and implemented"

📢 Final call for #EUbudget!

The RRF model must not guide the next
Local govs implement 70% of EU policies yet remain sidelined. It’s time to campaign for binding consultations on funding decisions!

"The growing trend towards the nationalisation of EU policies is leading to a concentration of investment in already well-positioned territories at a time when action on the ground must be strengthened"
