their territory. Use of regional and cross-border programmes may be used to develop twin cities or urban-rural areas.

transfrontier conurbations" and tools for the governance of border cities and agglomerations.
Target audience:

The EGCC GO guest at the INTERACT seminar: Interreg and European groupings on territorial cooperation (Madrid, 14/04/2015)
INTERACT organises a special seminar for EGTCs in April to introduce them to the Interreg world and also to promote their participation in programmes and projects. The Interreg programme's stakeholders are also welcome to participate.
The aim of the Seminar: Interreg and European groupings on territorial cooperation is to provide the EGTCs representatives with a digestible amount of relevant knowledge on the Interreg world – at both programme and project level. By learning the legal framework, commonly used terms (like Managing Authority, Lead Partner, etc.), programme and project lifecycles, the groupings would get a better understanding of the "rules of the game". While by presenting cases of EGTCs already involved in Interreg, INTERACT aims at raising the awareness about use of EGTC in Interreg.
In case participants would like to learn more about generating Interreg projects, the day after - on 15th April - the Workshop on Project Generation and Development is organized in the same venue. Participants of this seminar are welcome to also take part in this event.
The event will be held in English and the maximum number of participants is 40.
Please see the draft Agenda for details of the meeting. Registration is open untill 31st March 2015 - to register go: http://forms.interact-eu.net/interreg-for-egtc-14-04-2015.
