8 abril, 2025The European wide search for the best cohesion policy projects in 2025 has begun. REGIOSTARS is Europe’s label of excellence for EU-funded projects that demonstrate the impact and inclusivity of regional development.
Has your project created a positive impact locally? Was something new developed as part of it? Did it benefit your region economically, socially or environmentally? Do the results continue to show even after the project ended? Could it be rolled-out across Europe?
If “yes!”, submit your application to the REGIOSTARS contest before 20 May 2025 via the EU Survey REGIOSTARS application form.
As in previous year, the projects compete in five categories familiar from the cohesion policy objectives. The competition categories are:
- Category 1: A COMPETITIVE AND SMART EUROPE
- Category 2: A GREEN EUROPE
- Category 3: A CONNECTED EUROPE
- Category 4: A SOCIAL AND INCLUSIVE EUROPE
- Category 5: A EUROPE CLOSER TO THE CITIZENS
A REGIOSTARS jury composed of distinguished academics will assess the submitted projects. The winners of the five categories will be selected during the EURegionsWeek in Brussels this October.
The winners will be announced at the REGIOSTARS ceremony, the highlight of the EURegionsWeek. As part of their prize, the winners will receive a mini-promotion campaign for their project.
