Cohesion policy after 30 years: watch the debate live online

EU’s main investment policy celebrates its 30th anniversary. What has cohesion policy achieved over this period? And how ready is it to answer current and future challenges? On 21 March, at 17:00 CET, top politicians and EU officials will answer these questions. They will look at how cohesion policy has been at the heart of each milestone in the history of the Union, from the creation of the single market, to the need to foster convergence, through successive enlargements and the need to respond to the migration crisis. And they will explore how tomorrow’s cohesion policy will help the EU harness globalisation, foster prosperous economies, caring societies and sustainable growth, through innovation and skills.
