Foreword from Burkhard Jung, President of Eurocities and Mayor of Leipzig
“For the European elections 2024, we laid out a series of key demands,” says Burkhard Jung sharing a few words over Eurocities’ ‘A better Europe starts in cities’ manifesto. “These include ensuring a strong delivery of the European Green Deal, making the European Pillar of Social Rights a powerful motor for the just transition, and creating an urban envoy in the European Commission.”
Foreword from André Sobczak, Secretary General, Eurocities
“While climate change remains the top priority for European mayors in 2024, they also pay much more attention to social inclusion and housing than last year,” says André Sobczak underlining that “unlike many populist politicians, mayors do not oppose ecological and social needs and rather aim to work simultaneously on both challenges to develop a just transition where no one is left behind.”
