Revamping  the association's project: a new turning point for the MOT looking towards 2030

On March 26th, 2024, at the Hub of the Banque des Territoires, the MOT brought together its entire team and the members of its Technical Committee for a one-day seminar: an important opportunity for exchange and collective brainstorming in the context of its Associative Project - Horizon 2030. It was an opportunity to formulate a number of operational proposals that will feed into the Project. This will be unveiled at the General Meeting on the 27th and 28th of June in Dunkirk, at the same time as the "roadmap for the partnership between the State and the MOT for the period 2024-2027" promised in 2023 by Minister Dominique Faure.

Since January 2023, the MOT has been working on an association project with a clear objective: to clarify its model in order to make it sustainable, on the basis of consultations with its network and working groups. Four collective intelligence workshops were organised to discuss the many facets of the MOT's actions, with the watchwords "clarify" and "focus": distinguish the MOT's roles in its multi-level action, make the structure more agile and flexible, define the MOT's long-term position and strengthen its synergy with its partners. In a context of increasingly complex cross-border challenges, this process of collective reflection and action demonstrates the MOT's commitment to playing a leading role in promoting cross-border cooperation.

The MOT would particularly like to thank the participants who gave up their time and worked alongside the team for particularly rich and fruitful discussions:
