On Monday 16 June, France has submitted Lille Metropole (MEL) as the host city for the future European Union Customs Authority (EUCA)— a choice that reflects Lille Metropole’s unique strategic assets.
DREC aims to help cities and metropoles reduce CO2 emissions in the construction sector, including embodied carbon, while also increasing the use of bio-based materials.
This key meeting enabled the partners to come together to finalise the draft action plan and to learn more about Lille Metroplole’s local food ecosystem.
Ranging from training sessions, to internal communication campaigns, to organised visits to the european institutions, there were many opportunities to engage with and learn more about Europe !
