Council of European Municipalities and Regions

The Council of European Municipalities and Regions (CEMR) is an organization that brings together local and regional governments from across Europe. Established in 1951, its main goal is to promote the interests and voice of municipalities and regions at the European level. CEMR works on issues such as local democracy, sustainable development, and the sharing of best practices. By facilitating cooperation and dialogue among local governments, it helps address common challenges and enhances the role of communities in shaping policies that affect their citizens.
