TheMayor.EU is an online space where local authorities from the European Union can showcase their work, successful projects and initiatives free of charge giving them visibility to a wider European audience. The platform's aim is to stimulate the exchange of good practices and innovative solutions and to show the EU's contribution to the development of local communities.
TheMayor.EU includes hundreds of examples of successfully implemented European projects that support the social, economic and technological development of European cities and regions, as well as constructive solutions to the challenges they face - climate change, pollution, depopulation, technological backwardness, protection of cultural heritage and others.
Since its launch, www.TheMayor.EU has been operating as a non-profit initiative - the public can read and the municipalities can present their achievements completely free of charge.
