European Commission adopted the Interreg-IPA cross-border programme between Bulgaria and Serbia. The Interreg IPA CBC programme covers 6 border regions in Bulgaria and 7 Serbian regions. It is worth more than EUR 34 million, with a contribution of nearly EUR 29 million from the Instrument for Pre-accession Assistance (IPA).
It will help reach key objectives for the region: efficient management of natural resources, increased cross-border networks and interactions, boosted tourism, preserved cultural and natural heritage and investments in youth, education and skills. The programme will also focus on environmental protection and the promotion of climate change adaptation and risk prevention and management.
Some of the expected results include the improving the integration between different types of transport service used by tourists, development of joint tourism territorial management plans.
