SURE provides a platform for the exchange of knowledge, expertise and experience among practitioners in the field of economics, sustainability and spatial planning.
The SURE Network is a collaboration between small and medium-sized cities and greater metropolitan areas in the river delta from the Rhine, Scheldt and Meuse.
Through this network, we explore new ways to achieve harmonious economic, social, and territorial development.
Approximately 45 million people live in the highly urbanized region known as The Eurodelta. With a vibrant economy and a strategic location surrounded by the Rhine, Meuse and Scheldt, the region has the potential to become one of the world’s most developed and sustainable megaregions.
That’s why the SURE Eurodelta Network was created; to seek cross border cooperation within the European Network of Metropolitan Regions and to contribute towards stronger partnerships among cities and regions within the Eurodelta and beyond. By focusing on exploring opportunities for the region and knowledge exchange with members of the METREX Network, the network explores how the cooperation in the Eurodelta region can benefit all inhabitants.
The Eurodelta is a vital economical hotspot of the European Union where not only a joint history and values are shared, but also similar challenges exist today.
And when such challenges are tackled in cross-border collaborations, innovative opportunities and creative ideas are created for the region, as a whole.
Through this network, we can explore new ways to achieve a harmonious economic, social, and territorial development. This enables us to come up with innovative solutions that align with the policies of the EU Green Deal to transform the EU into a modern, resource-efficient and competitive economy.
Join us in building a more sustainable future for our region.
