EUROCITIES is a network of major European cities with headquarters in Brussels, founded in 1986 by the mayors of Barcelona, Birmingham, Frankfurt, Lyon, Milan and Rotterdam.
Today it brings together the local governments of over 140 of Europe's largest cities and over 45 partner cities, that between them govern 130 million citizens across 39 countries. Through six thematic forums, a wide range of working groups, projects, activities and events, it offers its members a platform for sharing knowledge and exchanging ideas. It influences and works with the EU institutions to respond to common issues that affect the day-to-day lives of Europeans and to reinforce the important role that local governments should play in a multilevel governance structure.

The City of Torino has been a member of the network since 1992 and part of the Executive Committee from 2000 to 2003.
