Citizens’ participation: the National Agency for Territorial Cohesion and the Banque des Territoires launch the "Territoires en commun" platform

With the "Territoires en commun" (“Territories in Common”) platform launched on 19 January, the National Agency for Territorial Cohesion and the Banque des Territoires wish to enable all territorial authorities to have access to technical assistance for cooperation and citizens’ participation. The goal is to support territorial authorities and their partners – particularly state partners – in the appropriation of methods enabling the co-design of projects.

The new platform aims to be a space for collaboration, sharing experiences, the promotion of good practices and mutual support between players at different levels (elected representatives, technicians, grassroots networks, civil society, etc.). On it can be found players datasheets, experiences datasheets and tools datasheets.

The MOT is inviting its members and all of the players involved in cross-border cooperation to contribute to it in order to highlight cross-border initiatives, projects and issues. The key element to underscore is citizens’ participation, which has special significance in the cross-border setting.
