- Description
- With over 70% of Europeans living in urban areas, shared public spaces are more important than ever. As cities become more crowded, ensuring everyone—whether walking, cycling, or using public transport—has enough space is key to creating safer, cleaner, and more equitable environments.
Shared public spaces reduce air and noise pollution and improve road safety, especially for vulnerable road users like pedestrians and cyclists, who account for 70% of urban road fatalities. By prioritizing this group and providing high-quality infrastructure, we can encourage more people to walk and cycle, leading to healthier, more sustainable cities.
Public authorities can reshape our cities by implementing policies promoting shared public spaces and sustainable mobility. But at the end of the day, it’s up to all of us to embrace this change.
Join the movement to improve our urban spaces, reduce pollution, and create safer streets for everyone! #Mobility...

- In this video, Paolo Gentiloni, European Commissioner for Economy, outlines the EU’s economic recovery forecast for 2024-2025, highlighting the key drivers and challenges ahead.

Despite the strong labour market, geopolitical tensions present a significant risk to the economic outlook, potentially undermining recovery efforts across the EU. As the EU's fiscal health improves with the end of energy suppor...

- The European Security Strategy is a comprehensive framework designed to address evolving security threats across the European Union. Built on four key pillars, this strategy focuses on safeguarding critical infrastructure, countering misinformation, and enhancing cooperation among law enforcement agencies.
