Joint statements and open letters

The CBF produces a range of resources through reports and statements that contribute towards a shared analysis of the Belgium-France-UK cross-border space. We also collaborate with CBF members, researchers, and activists to make their existing resources accessible to a wider, international audience.

On anniversaries of key events or in reaction to current events, including government announcements and deaths at the border, the Crossborder Forum coordinates joint responses from the civil society sector in our three member countries. These statements do not represent the views of the Forum or its membership and they are open for signature to CBF members and civil society organisations and activists more generally.
