The Territorial Agenda (TA) 2030 is an inter-governmental declaration with no direct legal, financial or institutional implementation instrument. The application of the Territorial Agenda 2030 relies on informal multilevel cooperation between Member States, sub-national authorities, the European Commission, the European Parliament, the European Committee of the Regions, the European Economic and Social Committee, the European Investment Bank and other relevant players.

The TA 2030 envisages a stocktaking in 2024 including a review of the governance system and implementation progress. This review has slowly started during the Spanish EU Presidency in 2023 and  continues with the Belgian Presidency. As the focus is expected to be on governance and implementation, civil society organisations and the EESC have to play a more active role in the governance of the TA 2030 and contribute to the priorities that have been set.

In its opinion on ECO/640, the EESC will propose the systematic and more intensive implementation of CLLD (Community-Led Local Development), ITIs (Integrated Territorial Investments) and any other tools facilitating integrated territorial development and cooperation with the civil society partners with stronger and tighter links with the cohesion policy.

In this context, the EESC is planning to make a study visit in Naples on 3-4 October 2024  and examine how civil society is contributing to the works of the TA. This study visit includes a full-day hearing with local civil society and regional actors and a half day study group meeting. It is important to explore in one of the bigger territories of Italy  (region of Campania) what is the relation and engagement of the civil society partners with the regional actors and how all together work towards the better implementation of the goals of the territorial cohesion.

In the hearing many regional and local stakeholders will present their activities and also express their concerns and obstacles regarding the implementation of the TA 2030. The hearing will also focus on the experiences that other stakeholders and EU officials from various member States have.
