Interreg
Fostering Cooperation
Interreg is a European Union instrument that strengthens cooperation between regions and countries within the EU. For 2021-2027, Interreg focuses on addressing current challenges such as climate change, digital transformation and social inclusion. It has a budget of €394 million for this period.
Cooperation for a
Stronger Europe
Interreg, funded by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) and set up under the European Cohesion Policy, supports local, regional and national governments in developing and implementing better policies. It provides a platform for sharing solutions to regional challenges and encourages the exchange of good practice between regions in 36 countries.
It was set up in 1991 to promote cooperation between European regions and border partners and to remove obstacles to effective cooperation. The main objective of the Interreg programme is to seek greater cohesion in Europe and the development of the regions. The programme promotes effective coordination between neighbouring regions and the exchange of good practice across Europe. It encourages the adoption of common strategies and solutions to common challenges, as well as attention to the specific needs of each territory.

It builds networks to develop good practices and facilitate the exchange and transfer of experience by successful regions. It showcases what regions do well, to the benefit of those still investing.
Its aim is to promote better cooperation and regional development in the Union through a joint approach to tackling common problems.
- Ongoing Support: 13 transnational cooperation programs will continue to promote large-scale collaborative efforts in Europe and beyond.
- Targeted Assistance: Four of these programs (Interreg Baltic Sea Region, Interreg Danube Region, Interreg IPA Adrion, and Interreg Alpine Space) will provide targeted support for Macro Regional Strategies within their geographic areas, ensuring that 80% of their thematic focus aligns with these strategies.
