An open window on the EU

摘要

Next month, the regions of Europe will converge on Brussels for the annual 'Open Days' event. Jointly organised by the EU and the regions themselves, this is a week-long event where councils share experience and propose solutions. EU policymakers attend the debates and what is discussed in October may well emerge as an EU initiative in 2010.The event is co-ordinated by the EU Committee of the Regions and coincides with its October plenary session.
