Summary:

EU macro-regional strategies (MRS) arise from a need to find more targeted solutions to common societal challenges. The MRS become efficient frameworks to engage relevant stakeholders in defining and implementing strategic actions and macro-regional projects (being called flagships, projects, example projects in different MRS). They are complex initiatives considering different perspectives.

Experience in implementation of the MRS shows that actions identified in the Action Plans 1 are well understood by the stakeholders, while the term ‘project’2 is causing misunderstanding.

This paper is aiming to collect different inputs to the question on what is a macro-regional project as well as to provide some additional thoughts to it. The paper does not aim to replace a definition of a macro-regional project in different strategies but only to compile various views and practice observations into a single document.
