The strategy and the priorities of the ERDF OP 2014-2020 of the Land Schleswig-Holstein aim at the creation of a business environment that promotes innovation and sustainable economic growth while ensuring attractive jobs and contributing to an evironmentally friendly development of the region.

Beyond this, the specific support to the Western Coast of the Land through an integrated territorial investment (ITI) - as an innovative implementation tool for selected parts of the operational programme - forms also an integral part of the strategy of Schleswig-Holstein.
