Cohesion Policy delivers: the story told by beneficiaries and stakeholders

REGISTER HERE



All EU regions have benefited and still benefit from Cohesion Policy, the main EU investment policy, for more than three decades. But what has been the added-value of Cohesion Policy on the ground? And how can we better inform and communicate about the impact of Cohesion Policy on people’s lives?

During this event, we will look at the achievements of Cohesion Policy, and reflect on the future of the Policy from the perspective of EU institutions, regional elected representatives, researchers and project beneficiaries who will present successful projects co-financed by Cohesion Policy funds.

The event will be followed by a networking reception.

This event is co-organised with the Conference of Peripheral Maritime Regions (CPMR) in the framework of the project “Spotlight on Cohesion policy: putting Europe’s regions at the forefront”, funded with support from the European Commission.
