There are also some \"European Forums\", but they deal with other domains, such as: Educational Administration (Europäisches Forum für Bildungsverwaltung), Youth (Jugendforum der Europaeischen Gemeinschaften), Health (Europäisches Gesundheitsforum) etc.

3 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Many thanks for your hard work - even though the Europäische Gemeindekonferenz is something else it seems -- this one is a network which works alongside the European Social Forum, and the official title is "Europäisches Forum der Kommunalverwaltungen". I finally managed to wrangle this information out of the organisers late last night. Not a single hit on the web for this title, though, but that's what they call themselves... Many thanks to both of you for your efforts!"

Kommunalbehörde / Ortsbehörde

is what Dielt/Lorenz suggests for local authority, hope it's at least a start...

\"Forum europäische Kommunalbehörde\"
Sounds like the English may already be a translation?
