Synthesis of the mid-term evaluations of INTERREG III programmes: implications for current and future INTERREG programming

The project involved assessment of the lessons from INTERREG and external cooperation programming experience in order to identify a list of priorities for enhancing the effectiveness of INTERREG Programmes. The study informed both the operational support services provided by INTERACT to INTERREG actors during the 2000-06 programming period, and contributed to the strategic debate on the future of Cohesion policy.
