Matchmaking Platform

Connecting Local and Regional Governments across Europe

In an era of poly-crisis, building a proactive, stronger and cohesive Europe is needed. Twinning and partnership building initiatives, rooted in II World War's efforts to promote peace, offer a political framework for resilience and collaboration. By connecting subnational Governments, relevant local actors and their citizens, Twinning fosters mutual understanding and creates a shared foundation to address local and global challenges.

Through innovative matchmaking functionalities, this platform enables Local and Regional Governments across Europe to connect, establish partnerships and take joint actions towards sustainable and inclusive development.
