On 27-28 May, Lublin became a venue for important discussions on the future of regional and international cooperation. This year’s Three Seas Local Government Congress, held under the honorary patronage of the President of the Republic of Poland, Karol Nawrocki, brought together numerous experts, local government representatives, and partners from Poland and abroad.
At the Programme stand, prepared by the Regional Contact Point in Lublin, participants had the opportunity to learn about the results of ongoing projects and obtain information on upcoming calls for proposals under the Small Projects Fund within the COOPERATION and ENVIRONMENT priorities.
On the second day of the Congress, Andrzej Słodki, Head of the Joint Secretariat of the Programme, moderated a debate entitled “Polish-Ukrainian Cross-Border Cooperation for the Development of Local Self-Government”.
During the discussion, participants highlighted the importance of the Interreg NEXT Poland – Ukraine 2021-2027 Programme as one of the key instruments supporting joint initiatives of Polish and Ukrainian partners.
The debate also focused on the role of local governments in fostering local and regional cooperation, as well as on the importance of building lasting cross-border partnerships.
We would like to thank all participants for the inspiring discussions and exchange of experiences!
