On 8 October 2024, the European Commission services (DG AGRI, DG REGIO, DG CONNECT) in close collaboration with the European Broadband Competence Network Support Facility and the CoR Broadband Platform will host a workshop focused on ‘smart and sustainable growth for regions’.
Many regions in Europe, especially rural and less dynamic ones, face challenges like economic stagnation, demographic changes, and limited access to essential services such as healthcare and education. These issues are often worsened by a lack of digital infrastructure, which restricts opportunities, particularly for women and people with disabilities. Despite efforts through the EU Cohesion Policy, large gaps remain between more connected urban areas and smaller towns or villages.
