This programme addresses the diverse economic, social, and territorial challenges across Spain, France, and Andorra, aiming to create a more integrated and sustainable cross-border region. Key priorities include promoting knowledge, innovation, sustainable mobility, cultural heritage, and ecological conservation, while tackling issues such as employment, social inclusion, and rural depopulation. It is a border area with two coastal areas on either side (Atlantic and Mediterranean) and the Pyrenean massif, which serves as both a physical and administrative border between the two Member States (Spain and France), with the Principality of Andorra at its heart. It is therefore a very large and diverse territory of 109 275 km2 with just over 13.7 million inhabitants, with a natural, historical and cultural heritage of great value.
