Strengthening cross -border cooperation

To improve economic development and to increase the quality of life in border regions.

A central concern of Interreg is to reduce development differences between regions and to maintain cooperation. Germany is active in 13 cross -border programs. Local and regional partners, including public and private organizations, can benefit from the funding. Projects must include participants from at least two EU member states, which promotes the exchange and networking enormously.

EU framework conditions for Interreg

The Ordinance (EU) 2021/1059 contains special provisions for European territorial cooperation, such as EUR-LEX.EU. These regulations aim to support harmonious economic, social and territorial development within the EU and strengthen cooperation beyond national borders.

The endeavor between the countries shows that you pull together and pursue common goals, which is an advantage for the development of everyone involved.
