  8 and 9 November 2007, Lille (France)
Conference "Cross-border territories: Day-to-day europe"

European conference

More than 800 persons came from all European borders to participate in the European conference organised in Lille by the MOT on 8 and November 2007. The objective was to discuss the political and operational issues of cross-border cooperation and show that a Europe close to its citizens is on the move in the cross-border territories.

The 12 workshops provided opportunities for topic-by-topic highlighting of issues, projects, good practices, etc., leading to concrete proposals in the form of recommendations, which will be collected early in 2008 in a white paper addressed to national and European institutions.
The two plenary panel discussions showed that cross-border territories* meet real needs, are an effective means of boosting Europe and must receive greater support from national and European authorities.
