They share: A common, broad concept; A common, broadly-defined target; A common brand and visual identity; Common dissemination tools. 6

Important enough to attract media: All events are on the same days, in all of the areas of the participating programmes. Innovative enough to attract citizens.

15. ECDay local events Keep in mind the Goal: to raise awareness for territorial cooperation within the population and to attract media interest! There is no compulsory type of local action. Combine several types of actions and events into one. Join forces: cooperate with other projects and organise a joint action or the same type of action in different places. European Cooperation Day can also be organised within the framework of a larger (e.g. national) event, in order to draw even more media attention. 15
