The enrichment of the content of the Europlanning Guide continues, with a fact sheet for each community program and more in-depth coverage of structural and rural funds.
Community programs: another chapter completed
These days we have completed the drafting of the chapter 4 sheets , which describe in detail beneficiaries, objectives, actions, projects and main new features of all community programs.
If prior to this latest integration (and in the previous edition of the Guide ) the main programs were covered, now it is also possible to find those related to more specific areas of possible interest to some readers: from programs related to nuclear power to those on space, defense, security and major infrastructure; from programs related to cooperation with specific countries to those aimed at strengthening the various institutional structures of member states (justice, tax, customs, reforms, anti-fraud services, borders and visas).
Even for those who do not deal with these specific areas, the coverage of all the programs (which is combined with a systematic collection of all the most important external links) is useful for a truly comprehensive overview of the architecture of EU funds.
Structural and rural funds: lots more information
Also these days, you can find online the new edition of chapter 2.2. On structural and rural funds. Again, the updated edition offers important new features:
- A more accurate terminological distinction between the different funds and between the main EU policies, to more clearly define the relationship between Structural Funds, Cohesion Policy and Agricultural and Fisheries Policies;
- A greater focus on rural funds, which indeed represent a very large proportion of European funds (similar to non-rural Structural Funds);
- A sub-chapter devoted to each individual Fund, so that there is a direct correspondence between the structure of funds and programs indicated in the Chapter 1.4. (summary table) and related fact sheets.
A summary prospectus, for everything
In this way, we have completed the examination of all the European funds and programs of the 2021-2027 programming, summarized in this new edition of the Guide in a single prospectus . Each fund and each program has its counterpart in the sections (Community programs) 4. o 2.2. (structural and rural funds).
What are we missing? We need to complete the examination of national, regional and interregional structural fund programming (NOPs, ROPs, RDPs and Interreg programs), in Chapters 5 and 6. We will do so as soon as the relevant programs are approved: stay tuned.
