Draft Interreg Programme Slovenia – Croatia 2021-2027 officially submitted to the European Commission

 

 

 

An important milestone has been achieved in the preparation of the new Interreg Programme Slovenia -Croatia 2021-2027. The Programming Task Force approved the final draft of the Interreg Programme (IP) Slovenia – Croatia for the programming period 2021-2027 in the last week of March 2022, which was followed by the signing of the Partnership Agreement by the heads of the relevant ministries on behalf of Slovenia and Croatia.

 

The final draft Interreg Programme Slovenia – Croatia 2021-2027 was officially submitted to the European Commission for approval on 31 March 2022. The European Commission will make observations to the document within three months of the date of its submission. The draft programme will be fine-tuned taking into due account the observations made in order to be approved at the latest within five months of the date of its submission to the European Commission. The new programme is thus expected to be formally approved at the start of autumn 2022.

 

In the meantime, the relevant authorities will prepare the call for proposals and the relevant legal bases governing the implementation of projects (guide for the beneficiaries on project implementation). Support will be given to the projects that will best help realize the vision of the new Interreg Programme Slovenia – Croatia and that will contribute to a well-preserved, resilient and connected border region where sustainable development is recognized as the driver of economic activity, safety and security, biodiversity protection and social prosperity.
