Brief introduction

.......................................................................................................................

With a budget of 173.5 million Euros, the Interreg IVA France (Channel) - England programme aims to promote the emergence - between the French and English parties - of a space of common citizenship fostering a sense of belonging to a cross-border area, and endowed with a specific identity.

This section provides you with key information regarding the programme.

For further information, consult the Operational Programme (OP).

The programme's founding document, the "OP" , extensively describes the programme's strategic principles as well as expectations to be complied with by project leaders wishing to apply for a grant (see also, "A guide for project leaders" under the tab entitled "Submission of a bid").

This Operational Programme, the production of which was co-financed by the ERDF through the INTERREG IIIA France-England 2000-2006 programme, has been approved by the European Commission (Decision of September 19th, 2008).
