The Network aims to strengthen the presence and role of the metropolitan cities and cities in the Alliance and help meet COVID-19 challenges and deliver on the ambitions of the recovery pathway, the European industrial strategy and the green and digital transitions. It aims to become an advocacy platform, providing cities with information, training, technical and policy assistance and build strong cross-city partnerships.
