European Week of Regions and Cities: call for papers
23-03-2007

Through this call for papers the European Commission’s Regional Policy Directorate-General invites experts in the field of regional development and the management of Structural Funds to send contributions to be presented during the “OPEN DAYS 2007 - European Week of Regions and Cities” between 8 and 11 October in Brussels.
The objective is to select about 100 speakers for a series of 40 workshops, which will be part of the OPEN DAYS 2007 programme. Due to the delivery of the cohesion policy programmes 2007-2013 by that date, this year's event will be organised under the headline “Making it Happen: Regions and Cities Deliver Growth and Jobs”. Therefore, priority will be given to contributions from Structural Funds managing authorities and implementing bodies without excluding speakers with a different institutional background.
Proposals for contributions should focus on one of the following themes:
  1. Attracting investors: Regions and cities show how it works;
  2. Proximity matters: Clusters and regional development;
  3. Spending it wisely: Public-private partnerships and financial engineering;
  4. Crossing borders: Networking and best practice supporting growth and jobs;
  5. Checking delivery: How the new programmes are implemented.
Interested persons are invited to fill in the form that can be found in the “links section” at the bottom of this page before 28 March 2007, 12:00 (CET), and to include a short abstract of their suggested contribution. The European Commission will base the final selection on the quality of these abstracts and the expertise of the speakers.
