The COVID-19 pandemic has definitely accelerated digital transformation. There is the need for a systematic view of the opportunities and risks associated with the use of the virtual world, including the metaverse, for increasing the effectiveness of local and regional policies.

We have to realise that with the killing of sheep and other farm animals by wolves in the alpine pasture areas, the willingness of farmers to manage alpine pastures is decreasing massively. The goal remains to amend the Habitats Directive. @Institut_IRE

The attacks on humans by big carnivores, some even with a fatal outcome, create constant fear amongst the local people. The conservation of large carnivores will mainly depend on their acceptance by people who share with them their everyday space. @borbolycsaba

This opinion demonstrates the strong interest of cities and regional authorities on social economy, recognizing the importance of a vibrant social economy ecosystem for a sustainable development model in all territories. @RicardoMRio

Local and regional authorities have important competences in the #RRF pillars. Cities and regions’ involvement in the further implementation is therefore a matter not only of logic and fairness, but also necessary for the RRF to effectively achieve its stated objectives.

It is impossible to capitalise on this potential of outermost regions without addressing the structural weaknesses and constraints of these territories, which require European policies to be adapted to their needs. This is the essence of Article 349. @PedrodeFariaeC1 @EU_CoR

Fruitful discussions on the role of cities and regions in delivering #EU policies on the ground, especially those related to #RePowerEU. By cooperating together we can better respond to the needs of citizens especially in the context of the ongoing energy crisis. @EU_CoR

RT @sarirautio: ”There are only human beings, we are all humans, and we must help those who need help❤️” so important words from Mayor of Michałowo #solidarity #paweladamowicz @EU_CoR

Human rights, equality, respect for the dignity of every person and assistance to all people in need, including immigrants and refugees, were for @AdamowiczPawel the unquestionable foundation of democracy and an indicator of the European future. @Adamowicz_Magda #CoRplenary

The barrier between hate speech and hate crime is only one step. Because barbaric slogans will lead to barbaric acts. This is a real threat that can put an end to European solidarity, freedom, human rights, the rule of law and #MediaFreedom. #AdamowiczAward #CoRplenary

Solidarity starts locally. I honour the courageous municipality of #Michałowo at the Polish-Belarus border, winner of the 2022 #AdamowiczAward for its courage in sheltering humans used by the Belarusian regime's human trafficking activities at the European border. @tzitzikostas

The Paweł #AdamowiczAward not only aims to commemorate the values that were close to the Mayor of Gdańsk, who was murdered in 2019, but also shows ways of thinking that are worth following, the values on which the #EU is founded. @Dulkiewicz_A @gdansk #CoRplenary @EU_CoR

Now, when we live in a time of big changes and insecurity, it is wise to work strongly towards global, common goals for a sustainable future. Europe and its cities must be engaged and committed to reach these goals. Now it is time to deliver. @sarirautio #SDGs #CoRplenary

We need better links between the #SDGs and the national recovery and resilience plans, as funding is the main obstacle to: implement the SDGs for 47% of municipalities and regions. @DrenjaninJelena @EU_CoR #CoRplenary

The #SDGs are the foundation stone for addressing ongoing crises. Local and Regional Authorities help in implementing these common goals on the ground. We are committed to work with the UN to enhance the #localization of SDGs. @tzitzikostas @EU_CoR

The #SDGs regional dimension, also called 'localisation' is key, since the achievement of 65 % of the targets is estimated to depend on input from local and regional authorities.

Monitoring #SDGs at the regional level can thus provide a more accurate picture. @trzaskowski_

🐦🔗: https://n.respublicae.eu/EPP_CoR/status/1623384499558948878

We need stronger commitment to the fulfilment of the #SDGs by all levels of government, a process in which the European Union can benefit from the experience of local and regional authorities and exchange best practices. @RicardoMRio @ricardorio @EU_CoR #CoRplenary
