The forum “The City of New Horizons” lands in Nice.

This Friday, November 18, the forum The City: New Horizons will take place at the Mediterranean University Center in Nice. It will be an opportunity to exchange ideas and meet others around topics associated with the city during the day.

This event was created in 2019 on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the National Interest Operation Nice Ecovallée. It is a real opportunity to address subjects directly linked to the territories, their change, and the role of the citizen in the city.
