By exchanging ideas and experiences, authorities in all 27 EU countries, Switzerland and Norway can jointly develop new policy instruments. The Interreg Europe programme is primarily for public organisations, but private parties and NGOs can also participate as partners in a project.
The third call will be open for applications from 20 March until 7 June 2024.
