Programme for the European Union funds’ investments in 2021–2027
Programme description
The programme covering four EU funds is the main tool to support Lithuania's long-term development. It promotes economic, social and territorial cohesion and supports a range of the EU's key priorities such as the green and digital transition.
The Cohesion policy funds steer the transformation of Lithuania’s economy by boosting research and innovation, accelerating digitalisation and enhancing small business' competitiveness.
The programme’s investments will substantially contribute to the transition towards a net zero carbon economy, by boosting energy efficiency for buildings, and by increasing the share of renewable energy sources. Funds will be also devoted to the protection of biodiversity, the development of circular economy and the promotion of sustainable urban transport.
The Just Transition Fund will deliver further decarbonisation and economic diversification while it will encourage job creation in the territories most affected by the industrial transition.
The programme promotes the social cohesion and addressing the challenge related to decreasing of working age population by improving the quality of health services, education and trainings.
The programme will support modernisation and electrification of the Trans-European network railway infrastructure, existing multimodal terminal connections and further development of the Trans-European road network, improving regional connectivity and traffic safety.
Integrated territorial development investments aim at addressing differences in economic activity, quality of social and public services among 10 sub-regions (counties) with a special focus on sustainable urban development of 10 cities as important regional hubs.
