L’Unione europea intende proteggere la biodiversità dei propri ecosistemi: per farlo sta stanziando alcuni miliardi di euro all'anno, soprattutto nell'ambito degli interventi sostenuti dalla politica di coesione. L'impegno però varia da stato a stato

Rural areas have a key role in ensuring the success of the energy transition. Installing new ground-mounted photovoltaic systems in the countryside of Spain, Romania and France would cover a large part of the European Union's energy needs

With the funds allocated by cohesion policy, the EU has significantly increased investments in the production of renewable energy, thus providing significant help to member states in achieving decarbonisation objectives

L'aumento delle temperature globali e l'accentuarsi delle siccità renderanno gli incendi boschivi eventi sempre più frequenti. Il 2022 è stato un anno che ha colpito duramente le foreste protette in Europa, e quelle della Romania in particolare. Come rispondere alla sfida?

Negli ultimi anni il sud-est Europa ha registrato un sensibile aumento degli incendi boschivi, soprattutto a causa dell’aggravarsi delle condizioni climatiche che facilitano la rapida diffusione delle fiamme

Over the last 20 years, the EU has distributed more than 8 billion Euros to help member states and candidates deal with the consequences of natural or health disasters. How does the fund work? Which countries have benefited the most?

1.8 million projects carried out by over 600,000 entities thanks to the EU cohesion policy. Who managed this myriad of initiatives, and on which areas and subjects were resources concentrated? A look at the data from the Kohesio platform

Romania is a virtuous example of how European funds for investment in information and telecommunications infrastructure can make a difference in offering quality services to citizens. A look at the data

In the Balkans, a region where energy is produced from fossil fuels or – when from renewable sources – from hydroelectric energy, energy communities are gaining ground: groups of citizens and small businesses that focus on self-production and self-consumption of renewable energy

Energy communities are projects in which citizens associate both as producers and consumers of clean energy at a local level. There are already many of them, including in South-Eastern Europe. They could be supported by EU cohesion policy, but that is not the case yet

Kosovo is growing fast in the field of innovation, but the strong potential of the sector is currently not being used as much as it deserves. We talked about it with Uranik Begu, director of the Innovation Center Kosovo

The Balkan countries are struggling to keep up with the rest of Europe in terms of Internet connection speed. The only exception is Romania, which - not surprisingly - is the country in the area that is best able to spend cohesion funds on ICT
