Intereg is a dynamic European Union funding programme strategically crafted to nurture collaboration and development among diverse regions within Europe. Tailored to the specific needs of each European border region, Interreg is more than just a funding initiative – it's a catalyst for positive change.

At its core, Interreg aims to diminish economic and social disparities among EU regions, fostering territorial cohesion while championing balanced and sustainable development.

Join us in in this journey towards a united and thriving Europe, where collaboration knows no borders, and development knows no bounds. This is achieved through several types of Interreg Programmes:

Cross-Border Cooperation

Interreg Cross-Border Cooperation, often referred to as Interreg A, supports collaboration in regions located on both sides of an EU border. There are 60 cross-border Interreg programs, one of which is the Interreg Meuse-Rhine (NL-BE-DE) programme.

Transnational Cooperation

Interreg Transnational Cooperation, known as Interreg B, involves regions from multiple EU countries coming together to form larger areas.

Outermost Regions

Cooperation programmes for outermost regions, part of Strand D, enables effective and seamless cooperation between Europe and its neighbouring countries and territories in these regions.

In the 2021 to 2027 programming period, Interreg has refined its strategic vision to address crucial challenges, including climate change, digital transformation, and social inclusion. With a resolute commitment to these pressing issues, the European Union has allocated a substantial budget of approximately EUR 10 billion to bolster Interreg initiatives. This financial support will contribute to advancing the European Union's cohesion policy priorities, fostering a united and resilient Europe.

The EU support can be prominently displayed in the description of the social media account of the beneficiary. Information mentioned in Article 50(1)(a) of the CPR can be provided in the bio/profile description to be always visible. Posts used to give regular updates on the activities and results could also feature personal stories of real end users of the project.

At least one event or activity should be organised where EU-support is featured prominently. If only one such event or activity is organised, ideally, it should be the inauguration of the project. The managing authority and the Commission should be notified in due time, for example at least three months ahead, to give them the possibility to attend the event. The event or activity should be accessible to media, and possible end users should be invited to take a first look at the new achievements. Furthermore, such activities could include an open day during the implementation of the project.

Permanent billboards or plaques should be placed on the operation site, as soon as it starts, as stated in Article 50(1)(c) and (d) of the CPR.

Plaques and billboards shall stay in place permanently. A common problem is meeting the obligation of permanent information materials under rigorous historical reconstruction rules.
