Euroregion Neisse-Nisa-Nysa

Euroregion Neisse-Nisa-Nysa is the first Euroregion created in Central and Eastern Europe, established in 1991. It covers mainly the Liberec Region of the Czech Republic, the state of Saxony in Germany and the Lower Silesian Voivodeship in Poland.

History
The representatives of the three countries approved a Memorandum determining the next steps in the creation of the region at the "Tripoint Conference on 23–⁠25 May 1991". In June 1991, a tripartite working group was created, which proposed a structure model which is the basis for the work to this day. The very founding of the Euroregion took place in Zittau on 21 December 1991. Since 2004, it has been headquartered in the most important city of the Euroregion, Liberec. The Euroregion is represented in all three countries –⁠ in Zittau in Germany, Jelenia Góra in Poland and Liberec in the Czech Republic (the chairman of the Euroregion is the governor of the Liberec Region).

Objectives
Euroregion is a voluntary interest association of municipalities and districts of the tripoint of the Czech Republic, Germany and Poland. It was founded to support the development of these areas in the form of mutual, cross-border cooperation. Its objectives are:


 * elimination of the negative effects of the state border
 * improving the standard of living of Euroregion residents
 * improvement of natural and cultural-political conditions of life
 * development of the economic potential of the Euroregion
