Interreg Slovakia – Austria

Description

Making the Borderlands Better Together

The Interreg SK-AT program is all about improving the area around the Slovakian and Austrian border. Here’s what they’re focusing on:

1. Boosting Innovation: Making the border area a hub for new ideas and creativity.

2. Going Green: Taking care of the environment by making the borderlands more eco-friendly.

3. Community Care: Looking out for each other by improving social services and quality of life.

4. Together is Better: Encouraging institutions and local people to work hand-in-hand.

What’s New? The Small Projects Fund!
There’s now a special fund managed by the regional agency of Lower Austria, NÖ.Regional GmbH. This is great news for smaller groups who want to make a difference. The fund will particularly support activities that bring people together and build trust across the border.

Who’s Involved?
On the Slovak side, it’s the Bratislava and Trnava regions. In Austria, it’s Lower Austria, Vienna, and Northern Burgenland. The Ministry of Investments, Regional Development and Informatization of the Slovak Republic (MIRRI SR) is taking the lead, and all these regions are teaming up to achieve these awesome goals together.
