Plenaries, meetings and events at the CoR
The European Committee of the Regions (CoR) is the meeting place in Brussels for Europe's regions and cities. Our events bring the voice of regions, cities, municipalities and citizens to decision makers in Brussels.
Our President
Kata Tüttő is a Hungarian politician, economist and public servant with over two decades of experience in local government, European policy-making, and urban sustainability. As of February 2025, and until the summer of 2027, she serves as president of the European Committee of the Regions. Ms Tüttő's leadership at the CoR is focusing on strengthening the role of cities and regions in shaping the EU’s future as well as its social, economic, and territorial cohesion.
Our members
Our 329 members are representing local and regional authorities from all 27 EU Member States. They gather in Plenary in Brussels up to six times a year to discuss and adopt opinions on EU legislation.
Priorities 2025 - 2030
The European Committee of the Regions calls for stronger Cohesion, Resilience, and Proximity to build a fairer, more responsive, and people-centred European Union.
Our political action is based on the belief that cooperation between European, national, regional and local levels is essential if we are to respond to the challenges of globalisation and build an ever closer and more mutually supportive Union among the people of Europe.
