P-BA & Interreg: some philosophical questions

Post 2027 (Interreg VII) Performance-based approaches

Context

Preparing for a new programming period provides an opportunity for reflection on some of the bigger questions: 

• What makes Interreg unique in the EU funding landscape?  
• Besides territorial cooperation, are there other features that make Interreg distinctive? 
• What is my programme’s niche? How can I make sure my programme adds value to other EU instruments? 

These questions are particularly relevant with the proposed introduction of performance-based approaches.

This short webinar aims to assist programmes with their reflections by introducing two philosophies for running a programme: "delivery" vs "piloting".  

Objectives

This webinar will provide a platform for an initial exchange on these two philosophies and others. The ultimate objective of webinar is to identify: 

• Is it useful to think of these two philosophies when answering the question: what makes Interreg unique? What other philosophies should we also consider? 
• Is one philosophy more prevalent among Interreg programmes than the other? 
• Looking to the future, are both philosophies compatible with performance-based approaches? 

Who is this webinar for?

Interreg programme practitioners involved in strategic preparations for post-2027.
