Europe Direct Center to open in Forcalquier

A new Europe Direct Center, the Centre Europe Direct Forcalquier Alpes-Provence, is set to open in Forcalquier to provide information on European Union policies and opportunities to rural territories. The center aims to make EU actions more accessible and understandable for residents, associations, businesses, schools, and local officials in the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence region.

Managed by the Communauté de communes Pays de Forcalquier – Montagne de Lure, the center will offer neutral and practical information regarding EU funding, public services, health, agriculture, mobility, ecological transition, and economic development. The official inauguration is scheduled for Tuesday, September 15, at the Maison des Entrepreneurs in Forcalquier, coinciding with the regional LEADER France congress.
