EurActiv reported that with the long-term budget topping the EU agenda in the autumn of 2012, European institutions are emphasising the continent’s regions as the battleground where the economic crisis would be won or lost, organising a set of open days aimed at making sources of funding more transparent and highlighting success stories.

Other features discuss the looming difficult negotiations in November and december 2012 between EU Member States, the European Parliament and the European Commission to agree on the Multi-annual Financial Framework (MFF) for the period 2014 - 2020.
