Each year, the CoR holds about about five to six forums, usually on the sidelines of its plenary sessions. These forums highlight the CoR's political priorities, the regional dimension of the Europe 2020 strategy, the local impact of "European Years" and other relevant topics.
CoR forums are held to give CoR members, EU institutions, local and regional stakeholders and academics a platform where they can discuss EU issues of primary importance to Europe’s regions and cities and to share their expertise.
