NEXT ITEM: How to measure cross-border cooperation in the framework of Interreg programmes?

ITEM online event
-


Results from the Interreg Project Crossquality and the first pilot application in the Euregio Meuse Rhine

item

How good is the cooperation of public sector bodies, companies or citizens in our cross-border region? How can we describe the quality of cross-border networks and entities? And finally: what are precisely the positive effects of an Interreg programme on the different aspects of cooperation and governance across borders?

In 2021 and 2022, the Crossquality project developed a methodology to measure the quality of cross-border cooperation related to Interreg programmes. With this innovative qualitative assessment methodology, it is possible to better assess the effects of Interreg programmes in a specific programme area. This Next ITEM is dedicated to the discussion of this assessment methodology. (Academic) experts are invited to discuss the methodology and its relevance for Interreg and cross-border cooperation.

The event is open for all and will be online via ZOOM.
