📢 REGISTER | PES Group Participatory lab on housing, 11 October 2022, Brussels

👋 Hi, Summer is winding down and it's time to disclose with you the first event by the PES Group of this Autumn!

In the frame of the European Week of Regions and Cites, organised by the European Committee of the Regions, we at the PES Group are organising an interactive event on Tuesday 11 October from 9.30 to 11.00 CEST to put on the same discussion table policy-makers, young politicians and experts from worldwide organisations working on housing.

The main goal of this workshop is that the participants can brainstorm with peers and experts on the challenges that regions and cities are facing when working with housing issues and EU requirements, develop replicable solutions and understand how to take the best advantage of the initiatives and policies put in place by the EU.

You will learn from senior politicians who are making their city or region a top example when talking about affordable, social and sustainable housing and from experts from different backgrounds.

You will have the chance to present the outcomes in the form of a joint Declaration to top-level leaders: Commissioner for Jobs and Social Rights Nicolas Schmit, the President of the Committee Vasco Alves Cordeiro, and all our PES Group members.

We set up four discussion tables and you can choose the one you prefer to join:
