Sixty Years Regio Basiliensis

31 May 2023

Regio Basiliensis is the Swiss partner for the Upper Rhine cooperation and the competence centre of choice for fostering cross-border collaboration in politics, public authorities, the economy, sciences, organisations, and the population.

The association was founded in 1963 and will celebrate its 60th anniversary on 19 June. It aims to provide incentives from the Swiss side designed to develop the Upper Rhine area into a cohesive European border region and to actively contribute to attaining this objective.

Since its founding in 1963, Regio Basiliensis has played a significant role in shaping regional cooperation in the Upper Rhine region and has contributed substantially to many of the trinational achievements and collaborations in this region.

Regio Basiliensis has a long-standing track record of involvement at the European level in numerous initiatives aimed at strengthening Europe’s regions and promoting cross-border cooperation.
