Where?
CITI-SN Project in Interreg IVB Program
CITI-SN project is in priority 4:
Strengthening communities
This priority supports transnational actions that facilitate economic and social cohesion within and between cities, towns and rural communities. Projects should aim to enhance the potential of regional assets aim to improve the attractiveness of environments, examine the potential for energy efficiencies in the construction and use of buildings and find solutions to the impacts of demographic change and migration.
For instance, the territorial development consequences of demographic change and ageing are substantial: changing transport requirements (modes of transport, times of travel) and land use demands (housing needs for the elderly population) as well as the related impacts on the availability and need for infrastructure and services.
This priority, therefore, seeks actions and model solutions for adapting policies to achieve a better balance in the settlement structure and avoid further polarisation and depopulation tendencies. Projects which concentrate on local actions with no transnational synergy effects, and which do not provide wider territorial development benefits for the transnational area will not be supported
Where can partners come from?
To receive funding, a project must include organisations from at least two countries, one of which should lie within the cooperation area. (http://www.nweurope.eu/nwefiles/image/nwe_map.jpg).
Any organisation with an involvement in territorial development-related issues may participate in the NWE Programme.
The Programme is not limited to specialists and is open to actors from the public, private and non-profit sectors.
We wish to apply to an Interreg IVB funding in order to develop and test the pilot mechanism - learning group (LG). For that purpose, our project will have to meet the requirements of the European Commission as specified in priority 4.
