Call for microprojects

Background

CALL FOR MICROPROJECTS


The Euroregion Pyrenees Mediterranean (EPM) is more than ever open to territorial and cross-border cooperation, which goes far beyond its member areas. This is why we are pleased to inform you that the EPM is responsible for the Eastern zone of the call for micro-projects covering the entire Pyrenean territory on both sides of the border.

This joint call to the EPM, NAEN Euroregion and the Pirineos-Pyrenees EGTC, with the institutional partners of the eligible territories, and coordinated by the Working Community of the Pyrenees (CTP), is the first call ever for our organisations in terms of funds for micro-projects, that must include partners from at least two states among France, Andorra and Spain.

You will find more details in the launch press release (FR), as well as in the summary of applications, and finally, the announcement of the results specifying the projects programmed for the eastern zone.

On 10 May 2023, representatives of the 25 microprojects and institutional partners met in Jaca (ES) for the call’s capitalisation seminar.
