Public partners

In addition, the EGTC Euregio Meuse-Rhine is committed to EMRIC at the administrative level.
More than 200 employees
In addition to these partners, more than 30 services and government agencies also collaborate with EMRIC. This means that more than 200 employees are involved in improving cross-border assistance.
