The European Policy Centre (EPC) has published a paper on the future of the EU’s Cohesion Policy. The document analyzes the policy’s challenges, including the rise of populism and nationalism, the impact of Brexit, and the need to address new challenges such as climate change and digitalization.

The paper proposes several reforms, including simplifying the policy’s implementation process, strengthening its monitoring and evaluation mechanisms, and ensuring it supports a green and digital transition.
