METREX, the Network of European Metropolitan Regions and Areas, is a non-governmental and non-profit organization that brings together over 50 metropolitan regions and areas across Europe. The network serves as a platform for the exchange of expertise and joint action on metropolitan affairs, aiming to promote the metropolitan dimension in European planning. METREX works closely with European institutions, the research community, governmental organizations, and other networks to address strategic issues of common interest. The organization is involved in various external EU and European-focused projects, contributing to the development of metropolitan cohesion policies and the transition to a circular built environment. Key activities include hosting conferences, such as the upcoming Autumn Conference in Bucharest, and engaging in projects like the Interreg North-West Europe initiative to accelerate the transition to a circular built environment in the Eurodelta region. METREX also offers fellowships, such as the Bernd Steinacher Fellowship, which focuses on funding mechanisms for metropolitan regions and areas. The network welcomes new members, including honorary members like Lviv, and provides a newsletter to keep stakeholders informed about its activities and projects.
