Europe in My Region 2017

The Europe in My Region 2017 campaign starts today in 25 countries of the European Union. The information campaign follows the Council Conclusions "Making Cohesion Policy more effective, relevant and visible to our citizens" and aims to encourage citizens to visit or take note of EU-funded projects, and share images and experiences via social media.

This year’s activities are organized within four initiatives:

• project openings (mainly in May);
• photo contest (from 2 May to 28 August);
• project hunt (from 2 May to 15 June);
• blogging contest (from 2 May to 28 August).

The European commission has prepared a dedicated communication toolkit to download and customize communication materials (including posters, campaign photos, etc.).

All citizens are encouraged to take part in the campaign and promote the above initiatives, also by including the hashtag #euinmyregion in all social media posts.
