Harvesting Report on Post-2027 Interreg Consultations

The European Commission has published the Harvesting Report on Post-2027 Interreg, presenting key findings from extensive consultations with Interreg practitioners, stakeholders, and citizens.

This initiative, part of a large-scale consultation on European Territorial Cooperation (Interreg) that began in 2023, involved over 10,000 individuals and organisations.

Key insights from the report highlight the advantages of living in border regions, such as cultural links, economic opportunities, and access to services. However, respondents also noted development challenges and barriers. The consultations underscored the value of Interreg in areas like climate change, economic competitiveness, and public services.

The report emphasises Interreg’s role in fostering knowledge exchange, building resilience, and addressing common challenges. These findings will inform future EU legal and policy frameworks for post-2027 cooperation.
