EU FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES AND PROJECT MANAGEMENT TIPS

Interregional peer reviews supported by the Policy Learning Platform allow managing authorities and public bodies in charge of local or regional development policies to receive hands-on feedback and advice from other European regions (peers) on the implementation of their policies and programmes.Peers from a selected number of regions are invited to your region – the host region – to examine the specific territorial and thematic context, and make recommendations based on their experience and
expertise.

What kind of support can you expect?
The thematic experts of the Policy Learning Platform will support the thematic exchanges between the
participating regions, in particular by:
 identifying suitable peers
 briefing the host coordinator and the selected peers
 supporting the preparation of content input (if desired)
 supporting the coordination and moderation of the exchanges during the onsite visit (if desired)
 supporting the preparation stakeholder interviews (if applicable and desired)
 supporting the finalisation of the peer review report.
Moreover, the Policy Learning Platform can cover travel and subsistence costs (including local transport,
accommodation and food) for up to six peers per peer review for their participation in the onsite meetings.

Under the current call, the  managing authorities and intermediate bodies responsible for the management of structural funds (both mainstream programmes at national/regional levels and ETC programmes) as well as public bodies responsible for local or regional development policies can benefit from the individual peer review support provided by the Policy Learning Platform.

Deadline: 31st October 2018.
