The European Commission recognizes the “embedding”, as the process to align 2021-2027 national/regional EU funding programmes with relevant Macro-Regional Strategies (MRS) priorities.
The embedding process encompasses several phases of programme cycle, going from planning to programme implementation, capitalisation, monitoring and evaluation. Fostering synergies and coordinating among programmes is crucial for an effective embedding.
The EUSAIR Stakeholder Engagement Point “StEP” (funded by IPA ADRION), led by Marche Regional Authority, will support the embedding process by fostering networking between ETC programmes, reactivating the EUSAIR ETC Programmes Network (launched in Ancona in April 2021).
EUSAIR Action Labs, successfully tested in 2021-2022, will bring together all the MAs/JSs of the ETC Programmes whose cooperation area totally or in part overlap the Strategy territories.
The EUSAIR ACTION LABs aim to enhance complementarities and create opportunities for potential synergies among ETC programmes. This is achieved by sharing lessons and experiences on practical aspects of embedding during the implementation phase, following a thematic approach grounded in EUSAIR Pillars, and relevant emerged Flagships ideas and/or projects.
This first webinar will be held on 14th January 2025 from 10.00 to 12.00 a.m. and it will take stock of the achievements in embedding EUSAIR priorities and flagships during programmes’ implementation; it will foster exchange opinions and gather suggestions for increasing embedding effectiveness in 2021-2027 and beyond.
