Partner cities
The City of Lyon has steadily established new partnerships with many cities from all over the world. A partnership is a "rapprochement" between two cities in view of creating closer and lasting links between their citizens, in the form of visits, exchanges of experience and know-how in order to reach, in many cases, a highly developed framework of cooperation in various domains: culture, tourism, technology, language instruction, vocational training, etc. Lyon can thus benefit from exchanges with its partner cities and provide its citizens with access to new cultures, while working for the promotion of Lyon's know-how and confirming its position as a major European metropolis. A partnership is concluded by the signing by both parties of an official document which may have different forms: Privileged Relations, Friendship Pact, Twinning, Protocol of Agreement, Protocol of Exchange and Cooperation, etc.
