We are glad to announce that Romania joined the BTIN network as starting with september 2020, when Constanta City Hall became full member of the network. Built as an innovative tool, the Network’s role is to strenghten and to expand the existing institutional relations, in order to solve the emerged issues related to solidarity and migrants reception. The BTIN is composed only by local authorities of towns that are located at the European borders, as full members.
