Interreg Europe helps regional and local governments across Europe to develop and deliver better policy by creating an environment and opportunities for sharing solutions and policy learning. The aim of Interreg Europe is to make sure that government investment, innovation and implementation efforts all lead to an integrated and sustainable impact for people and their community.  By building on its forerunner, INTERREG IVC (2007-2013), Interreg Europe aims to get maximum return from the EUR 359 million financed by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) for 2014-2020. 

Interreg Europe exists to assist three types of beneficiaries:

• Public authorities – local, regional and national
• Managing authorities/intermediate bodies - in charge of the Investment for Growth and Jobs programmes or European Territorial Cooperation
• Agencies, research institutes, thematic and non-profit organisations – although not our main target group, these types of organisations can also work with Interreg Europe by first engaging with their local policy makers in order to identify options for collaboration with Interreg Europe

During the 2021-2027 programming period, Interreg Europe will continue to support interregional cooperation among regions from all across Europe.
