Cross-border cooperation as a focal point for the Moselle CLCT’s work
October 2022On October 14th, the Prefect of Moselle gathered the Local Committee for Territorial Cohesion (CLCT). On this occasion, a participatory approach was proposed to the various participants, via the organisation of five working groups, the objective of which was to identify the engineering needs of local authorities, the existing solutions, and to promote the exchange of good practices and feedback from the field.
One of the five working groups dealt with inter-territorial and cross-border cooperation, and was co-chaired by Florence Guillemin, of the SaarMoselle Eurodistrict EGTC, and Aurélien Biscaut, representing the MOT.
Although Moselle borders both Germany and Luxemburg, the discussions focused on the latter. After recalling the main cross-border issues and projects, the participants stressed the need for a concerted cross-border strategy between French actors, particularly in order to be able to enter into dialogue with the Luxembourg partners, and for a place to develop it. The Franco-Luxembourg Consultative Committee, led by the Prefect and bringing together all the Lorraine partners, seemed to be an ideal forum.
