Before the launch of the competition, a Forum attended by the city representatives for the proposed session sites, the national Europan structures and by experts, is held to foster discussion and debate about the sites.
Its aim is to finalize the competition site programmes and to establish the thematic classification for the sites. The aim is to involve cities, urban developers and contracting authorities in the Europan process and to ensure that the different partners in the session share a common culture.
