EU funds for sustainable growth, challenges and opportunities

Following the onset of problems related to climate change, the Covid emergency and the economic crisis, the theme at the center of the event, in recent years, has taken on an increasingly central dimension in the social and economic debate and the numbers prove it.

According to the analysis conducted by the experts of the Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna in Pisa, already in the period 2014-2020 the Emilia-Romagna Region has allocated about 22% of the European funds available, i.e. 541 million euros, to the financing of initiatives for the sustainable growth.

Within this share, most of the resources, 45%, went to interventions for the protection of the environment, 38% to interventions for adaptation to climate change and 17% for a low-intensity economy. carbon.

But now the challenge is to make the best use, even at a territorial level, of the new resources that the EU has allocated to Italy through the

2021-2021 programming of the structural funds (approximately 45 billion) and the Next Generation EU plan (approximately 209 billion)

.

An instrument, the latter, which will oblige member countries to allocate, respectively, 37% and 20% of the funds made available with the Recovery Fund to the implementation of the green and digital transition.
