Summary: The European Structural and Investment Funds (ESIF) have a key role to play in achieving the Europe 2020 strategy for smart, sustainable and inclusive growth. They will make a major contribution to the transition to a low-carbon and climate-resilient Europe. The funds will contribute to the target that climate action objectives will represent at least 20% of EU spending in the period 2014-2020, while helping to improve energy security, build a low-carbon, resource-efficient and climate resilient economy, which will boost Europe’s competitiveness and create more and greener jobs. A series of Fact Sheets are available to illustrate the potential for climate action and how to assess the climate mainstreaming of Partnership Agreements and programmes. Two sets of Fact Sheets are available: One set on ‘Potential for Climate Action – Examples of how to mainstream climate action and the potential for doing so’ and another on ‘Assessment of Climate Action – How to assess the mainstreaming of climate action potential in Operational Programmes’. The ESIF consist of: - The European Fund for Regional Development (ERDF) - The European Social Fund (ESF) - The Cohesion Fund (CF) - The European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD) - The European Maritime and Fisheries Fund (EMFF). |
