Online survey on “The European Economic Recovery Plan in Regions and Cities: One Year On”

The Lisbon Monitoring Platform of the Committee of the Regions has launched an online survey on “The European Economic Recovery Plan in Regions and Cities: One Year On”.

The aim of the survey is

  • to assess the impact of the economic and financial crisis at local/regional level,
  • to provide an initial evaluation by local and regional authorities of actions taken on the ground under the European Economic Recovery Plan (EERP),
  • to stimulate a debate on past, ongoing and future anti-crisis measures and the involvement of local and regional authorities.

The results will be presented early next year at the 2010 Territorial Dialogue, where all administrations will have the opportunity to discuss them with top representatives of the European Commission, the EU Presidency, the European Parliament and the European Economic and Social Committee. Details on the event will follow in the coming weeks.

All EU regions and cities are invited to participate in this survey (deadline: 30 November 2009). The text of the survey is only available in English, however replies can be sent in any official EU language.
