Description

This territorial study addresses the future policy needs, linked to the inclusion of the cross-border dimension in the Czechia’s Regional Development Strategy 2028+; for this purpose, it is important to understand whether and where Czech cross-border functional areas regions are present, and how their development dynamics and challenges differ. Through new granular territorial evidence and tailored recommendations, it will produce a comprehensive overview of the Czech cross-border functional areas, also alleviating the absence of a a standardised approach to the monitoring of these areas through a cross-border monitoring toolkit enabling long-term observation.
