The Parliament Magazine values the work of the URBAN Intergroup
“I would like to thank all my colleagues, Members of the European Parliament, and of course all the partners of the URBAN Intergroup. We are doing together a lot of interesting things.” – commented Jan Olbrycht while receiving the MEP Award 2014. The nomination and award of the president of the URBAN Intergroup constitutes the acknowledgement of the work of the whole Intergroup.
“As president of the European Parliament URBAN Intergroup, Jan Olbrycht has been a champion of towns and cities as engines driving national and regional economics. Olbrycht has been nominated for his horizontal approach to urban development and his inclusive approach, bringing together more than 70 MEPs from across the member states and around 100 partners from the local, national, regional and European level” – we read in the official justification.
