This is a future scenario* to show how the charter can create a shift in how Multi-level governance (MLG) is applied in Europe. It has been developed during the “Emulation Workshop” organized at the CoR  (Brussels – 3/02/2012).

* The following story is a fiction imagined during the co-creation process and does not engage the public authorities or stakeholders eventually mentioned.

SCENARIO

Danielle Martin, 47 years old, representative of a small agricultural association (France)

“Thanks to the Committee of the Regions’ Multi-level governance Charter, I could gain visibility towards the European Commission for my small association and its objectives. More than 12000 signatories of the Charter – mainly local and regional authorities but also member states – allow me to defend the interests of local farmers more convincingly.”
