General EU funding programmes

The European Union allocates substantial financial resources to promote economic and social cohesion and to reduce disparities in living standards and in economic opportunities between member states, regions and social groups.

Further core objectives of EU policies are ensuring sustainable economic growth, enhancing the competitiveness of European businesses and protecting the environment. In addition, the EU’s activities in the fields of social affairs, culture and education are foundational for European integration.

The various funding instruments differ, among other things, in the management mode. When applying, it is important to distinguish between direct, shared and indirect management. Further key information to help you get started with the application process can be found here.
