As #Poland25eu gets underway, the Polish PRES comes at a crucial time for the debate on the next MFF and the role of Cohesion Policy. An interesting calendar of events will be focusing on the contribution of CP to EU goals, their territorial dimension, the role of regions, & lessons from the RRF

Delighted that our exciting project on 'Low Carbon SME Development & Transition' (COMMIT) is being funded by Interreg Europe. EPRC Delft is part of a consortium led by #KSSENA (SI) with partners from BG, DK, EL, ES, NL and NO. Look out for the project website & work programme starting in March 2024.

Big changes are underway in the national regional policies of many European countries. Our latest #EoRPA overview of regional policy in Europe charts recent policy reforms in AT, DE, EE & NO and those 'over the horizon' in CH, FI, NL, PL, SE & SI, plus numerous institutional changes. bit.ly/48g6Gkh

Navigating stormy waters: our latest EPRC annual #EoRPA report on the state of play of EU Cohesion Policy. Reviews the launch of the new programmes, their relationship with the RRF, and the post-2027 debate - 'aspirations vs reality' & the potential for 'revolution not evolution'. bit.ly/4773CGG

Interesting debate at the ECA Evaluation Conference. Enjoyed discussing how well Cohesion Policy is working & whether evaluations are credible on a Panel assessing the policy's AV with Adrian Schout (Clingendael), Friedrich Heinneman (ZEW) & Alison Hunter (EPC), chaired by ECA Member Stef Blok.

Four important themes underpinning intensive debates at #EoRPA44, addressing key and common challenges faced by regional policymakers across 30 European countries as well as at EU level under EU Cohesion Policy. Look out for EoRPA blogs and papers coming out over the coming months.
