The aim of the regional processes was to mobilise actors in the region and act as a catalyst for specific contributions from the region to the Forum. Seeing that issues differ across regions, the regional coordinators developed these themes in their regional context and provided region-specific input into the Forum. Each region was coordinated by a specific organization or group of organizations that aimed to bring together the various stakeholders from all sectors and corners of the region.

Apart from the EWP as European Regional Coordinator, the Regional Coordinators are listed below. The respective regional documents can be downloaded by clicking on the region.
