We’re pleased to share the 2nd issue of the Interreg Europe project Metro Case newsletter (No.2 – March 2026).
One year ago, we received the positive news that Metro Case had been approved by Interreg Europe. It has been an exciting first year and we are now starting to see the first concrete results of our joint work. The “Governance State of the Art” – our comparative overview of how metropolitan areas are organised, managed and supported by policy instruments across partner regions – is almost finished. At the same time, each partner is developing a SWOT analysis (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats). This exercise helps regions reflect on their own governance systems, identify what works well, where improvements are needed, and which external trends may influence future development. In parallel, partners have started identifying and selecting Good Practices from their territories and beyond. These are concrete examples of innovative governance models, planning tools, mobility strategies, funding mechanisms or cooperation approaches that can inspire policy improvements in other regions. We are starting to getting to know each other but most importantly, we are starting to learn from each other.
