Eurométropole Lille-Kortrijk-Tournai

The Eurometropole connects 157 municipalities across French, Walloon, and Flemish territories, forming a cross-border region of 3,589 square kilometers with 2.1 million inhabitants.

Established in 2008, the Eurometropole became one of the first European Groupings of Territorial Cooperation, bringing together 14 institutional partners from France and Belgium.

The cooperation fosters educational exchanges between primary schools, language programs, and joint cultural events across the French-Belgian border communities.

The territorial partnership develops transportation networks, including rail connections and sustainable mobility solutions to facilitate movement between French and Belgian municipalities.

The Eurometropole implements the Blue Park project, which integrates water management and environmental protection across the entire cross-border territory.
