The areas of support are innovation
and
the
knowledge
economy,
environment and risk prevention.
Thus, the programme aims to
contribute
to
the
economic
modernisation and competitiveness of
Europe. INTERREG IVc is linked to
the objectives of Lisbon and
Gothenburg agendas.
Typical tools for exchange of
experience are networking activities
such
as
thematic
workshops,
seminars, conferences, surveys, and
study visits. Project partners cooperate
to identify and transfer good practices.
Possible project outcomes include for
example case study collections, policy
recommendations, strategic guidelines
or action plans. INTERREG IVC also
allows light implementation or piloting,
but only if these complement the
exchange of experience activities.
The dates of the first call for Interreg
Europe project proposals are fixed to
open on 22 June and close at midday
on 31 July 2015.
