Launched by the European Committee of the Regions, the European Cross-Border Platform which succeeded the EGTC platforms, aims to “bring together all the actors of cross-border cooperation, from border towns and regions to EGTCs and Euroregions.” The goal is to provide a common space at the European level for cross-border actors  to  to exchange on their common needs, engage in dialogue with EU institutions, point out the problems encountered, and seek solutions at the European level.

The MOT is part of its Steering Committee alongside AEBR and CESCI.
