Renovations, sustainable mobility, urban greening. These are just some areas in which the Committee of the Regions’ (CoR) wants to work more closely with the European Commission. EURACTIV France reports.
The “Green Deal Going Local” working group debated the priorities for 2021 on Monday (15 February) and announced its roadmap, which will have to be approved at the next meeting in March.
In a draft obtained by EURACTIV, the working group plans to step up cooperation with various European Commission directorates-general (DGs) to support, in particular, the wave of renovations, the development of sustainable mobility, and the greening of cities.
“The Green Deal is a cross-cutting priority,” explained working group member and president of CoR’s Commission for Territorial Cohesion Policy and the EU Budget, Isabelle Boudineau (PES), noting that “our aim is, therefore, to work on these issues together with most of the Commission’s DGs.”

“The project needs to be credible, and for the project to be credible, it needs clear results. And for results, we need funds,” said green MEP Diana Riba i Giner.
