Protection of the environment in Mediterranean Islands via the valorisation of grape cultivation PROMED Italia-Malta 2007-2013 Cross-Border Cooperation Programme

To achieve a fully federated political form the European Union (EU) is working to improve the economic well-being of regions in the EU and also to avoid regional disparities. More than one third of the EU's budget is devoted to this policy, which aims to remove economic, social and territorial disparities across the EU, restructure declining industrial areas and diversify rural areas which have declining agriculture. In particular, under the Treaty of Lisbon (December 13, 2007), the EU has developed and continues to support a specific policy of economic and social cohesion. PROMED Italia-Malta 2007-2013 Cross-Border Cooperation Programme

The instrument developed to realize this purpose are the so-called European Structural Funds. These funds have been subject to continuous and appropriate modifications, in relation to the different positions tend to be consistent with policy and programming in the time taken by the EU. In this contest, the Structural Funds are multipurpose tools (financial, planning, scheduling) set up to implement the Cohesion policy. They aim to reduce regional disparities in terms of income, wealth and opportunities. Europe's poorer regions receive most of the support, but all European regions are eligible for funding under the policy's various funds and programmes, such as the most recent ERDF (The European Regional Development Fund) and ESF (The European Social Fund). PROMED Italia-Malta 2007-2013 Cross-Border Cooperation Programme

The Structural Funds are tools created and managed by the European Union to finance various development projects within the EU. The main Objectives for 2007-13 are: Convergence Objective, Regional Competitiveness and Employment Objective, Territorial Cooperation Objective. The structural funds currently committed 37.5% of the total budget of the European Union. At the level of individual regions of the EU Structural Funds are expressed by specific programs, so-called Operational Programmes (OPs) both Regional (POR) and supra-regional (PON), bound to the guidelines issued by the relevant Regulations.
