  2. INTRODUCtion TO Interreg med 2014-2020:The NEW ARCHITECTURE

  3. PRIORITY AXIS 1: Promoting Mediterranean innovationcapacities to develop smart and sustainable growth PRIORITY AXIS 2: Fostering low carbon strategies and E.E. in specific MED territories: cities, islands and remote areas PRIORITY AXIS 3: Protecting and promoting Mediterranean natural and cultural resources Areas One territorial priority axis PRIORITY AXIS 4: A shared Mediterranean Sea 71,7M€ ERDF 2,9 M€ IPA 76,2 M€ ERDF 3,2 M€ IPA 44,8 M€ ERDF 1,8 M€ IPA Three thematic priority axes 17,9M€ ERDF 0,7 M€ IPA

  4. Three typologies of projects • Modular projects • Horizontal projects • Platform projects In thematic axes 1,2,3 In Governance axis 4

  5. 1. Modular projects

  6. Background • Based on the MED Programme 2007-2013 experience, the development of a new and innovative public intervention needs three successive phases: • a phase of study and development of strategies & policies; • a phase of testing, to validate the hypothesis developed; • a phase of transferability and capitalisationof results at the transnational level • Module-based Approach

  7. What is a module-based approach ? • Module 1: STUDYING: designing common approaches & strategies at transnational level • Module 2: TESTING: Pilot demonstration actions and transferability on the territories • Module 3: CAPITALISING: Transfer, dissemination and capitalisation at transnational level • A module is a complete, • independent cycle of a project

  8. The different types of modular projects • Combinationof Modules • Single Modules

  9. Single-module

  10. Multi-module

  11. How to choose? Start from M1 if no available knowledge Start from M2 if ready to be tested Start from M3 if mature to be capitalised • immediate requirements • seeking quick answers • Agility • specialised partnership • Need simple implementation • medium-term vision • Combine different objectives & results • multiple skills partnership • Experience in Interreg projects A multi-module project A single-module project for: for: if: if: Ask yourself: Where do I start from? How far should/can I go?

  12. How to continue on another module ? In a Single-module project: • Apply for another type of project in forthcoming calls for proposals • No possibility to continue directly In a multi-module project: • Verification phase performed by the JS to pass from one module to another • Support from an external expert Specificities of multi-module projects: • Innovations in management and monitoring • 1 subsidy contract with the different modules, each module having its own objectives, outputs, calendar and budget

  13. 2. HORIZONTAL projects

  14. What is a horizontal project for? • A single interface for: • Modular projects, united within a thematic community • Programme authorities, as a centre for thematic information • the governance platform, as a link with modular projects • Key role: 1) community building 2) joint communication 3) joint capitalisation/transfer Focus on synergy mechanisms, thematic communities

  15. Horizontal Projects characteristics The horizontal projects will essentially be an instrument of sharing thematic results, highlighting activities of each modular project in order to promote in a structured way their implementation and transferability in the MED area. The use of a joint Internet webpage will be a determining element allowing the emergence of geographical content being recognized as transnational “MED” identity

  16. HP and modular projects cooperation Each modular project is linked to a horizontal project Advantages for MP Contributions to HP Prepare dispatches and communicate appropriate information on activities and results Participate in events Designate a contact person • Support COM & CAP actions • Savings: no COM & CAP tasks outside territory • No need for branding and Internet site • Facilitate synergies and complementarities
