OCD–EU–LAC – Rethinking Decentralised Cooperation in a Context of Multiple Transitions (2022–2023)

The project involved the preparation of the background paper and study Rethinking Decentralised Cooperation in a Context of Multiple Transitions, building on the discussions and outcomes of the 8th Conference of the European Union–Latin America Decentralised Cooperation Observatory, held in Barcelona. The study synthesised key insights, identified emerging trends, and provided a strategic perspective on the role of decentralised cooperation in addressing challenges such as climate change, urban resilience, and the social, institutional, and territorial transformations affecting cities and regions.
