Reporting on European projects was one of the most requested topics by readers of the Guide. We will now devote a special section to it .
Reporting in European projects
The reporting is one of the concepts most frequently associated with the world of europlanning. In some cases , it is also one of the processes considered most difficult by those who approach it. Our Guide does not yet discuss this specifically and in depth, and a In-depth study of the topic.
Reporting is closely linked to the other aspects of project life (proposal development, budgeting, activity execution, project archives, partner relations, monitoring, reporting).
It is, at the same time, a necessary process to obtain the disbursement of European funds.
Poor reporting can result in a considerable amount of additional work, failure to disburse part of the funding, or a demand for its repayment by the Managing Authority.
In contrast, good reporting supports and is supported by good monitoring and technical execution of project activities.
This is a topic that is not easy to deal with because the rules can change depending on the programs, the calls for proposals and the way the various managing authorities decline the common rules.
A special chapter of the Guide now provides the basic tools to deal adequately with reporting activities.
