Euregio Karelia was founded on the 24th of February 2000 with a contract signed by representatives of the regional councils of Kainuu, North Karelia and Northern Ostrobothnia from Finland, and a representative of the government of the Republic of Karelia from Russia. Euregio Karelia was the first Euroregion area estab- lished on the land border between the European Union and the Russian Federation. The basis of Euregio Karelia is the common aim of the partner areas to improve living conditions of inhabit- ants in the area via cross-border cooperation. As stated in the partnership contract, Euregio Karelia forms a foundation for contact between people, economic organizations and administrative bodies, strengthens and develops good neighbor relations, and protects the common cultural heritage of the partnering areas. The goal is to form and implement cooperation plans and projects to promote the development of border areas, as well as to eliminate any obstacles of cooperation. Euregio Karelia does lobbying towards the central administrations of Finland and Russia, as well as towards the European Union, on themes concerning funding, visa exemption, transport connections, communication, population well-being, and other border-crossing cooperation themes. Euregio Karelia directs on a strategic level the cross-border cooperation funding programmes of its area. The operational environment of Euregio Karelia has changed during the last decade. Changes were brought along by, for instance, the growth of cross-border passenger and cargo traffic, increase of economic activity and changes in the legislation and contractual terms regulating cooperation. In their 10th anniversary meeting in December 2010, the board of Euregio Karelia decided to prepare a stra- tegic document to outline cooperation up until the year 2020. The document “Main Directions of Euregio Ka- relia 2020” was prepared by the secretariat of Euregio Karelia. Using present state analysis, it states the methods and main areas of cooperation until the year 2020, and highlights shared cooperation projects. The background memo of the document (Operational Environment of Euregio Karelia 2000-2013) describes the present circumstances of cross-border cooperation and their changes during the previous 10-year period. The programme “Main Directions 2020” is based on a shared evaluation of previous changes in the Eure- gio Karelia operational area, as well as on future prospects. A significant and expected change is the pos- sible visa-free regime between the European Union and Russia. This would mean considerable growth of border traffic inside the Euregio Karelia area. Another factor to take into notice is the membership of Rus- sia in the World Trade Organization (WTO), which brings in new possibilities not only to business and trade, but also border traffic. “Main Directions 2020” highlights the central role of Euregio Karelia in the cross-border cooperation between Finland and Russia. Euregio Karelia functions as an umbrella for developmental projects and other meas- ures that promote cooperation in the area. “Main Directions 2020” is a strategic signpost for the preparation and implementation of the European Neighbourhood Instrument programme CBC Karelia 2014-2020 in the Euregio Karelia area. Materialization of the goals defined in this document requires a high level of commitment. This is why we find it very important that local authorities take into notice the outlines and measures presented in this document, and implement them in their own developmental programmes and decisions. We rest assured that the outlines and concrete operational suggestions in this document will be carried out in the public and private organizations operating in the Euregio Karelia area, and that materializing goals stat- ed on this common program will create new markets, businesses and jobs, as well as strengthen the area’s competitiveness. Thus the common goal of Euregio Karelia, to improve the area’s well-being on both sides of the border, will actualize. The board of Euregio Karelia will follow the implementation of the programme and will make necessary sug- gestions of proceedings to ensure the actualization of goals presented in the programme. The board of Euregio Karelia has approved this document in Kostomuksha on the 20th of May 2014.

In 1998 EEA published Guidelines for the implementation of the EUROWATERNET monitoring network for inland waters. In every Member Country a monitoring network should be designed according to these Guidelines and put into operation.

In the future they will be developed to meet the requirements of the EU Water Framework Directive. This publication presents the Finnish EUROWATERNET monitoring network put into operation from the first of January, 2000. It includes a total of 195 river sites, 253 lake sites and 74 hydrological baseline sites. Groundwater monitoring network will be developed later.

  • Regions of Eastern Finland (Summary)
    Summary of views on the 2nd Cohesion Report Regions of Eastern Finland, 27.8.2001 Regions of South Karelia, South Savo, Kainuu, North Karelia and North Savo Starting point: - The EU regional policy is important for the development of Eastern Finland regions. - During the period 1995-1999 Eastern Finland was covered by the Obj 6, 5b and Interreg II A programmes. Of these the Obj 6 programme area was defined in the Accession Treaty of Finland and Sweden on account of specific circumstances of sparse population. - In the present period until 2006 the South Savo, North Karelia, North Savo and Kainuu regions form an Obj 1 programme area. At the same time East Finland has an A support status according to Article 87.3 of the Treaty, allowing allocation of higher state aid. The region of South Karelia is covered by the Obj 2 programme. In addition there are two Interreg III A programmes implemented in the area. - The Eastern Finland regions consider that the additionality principle has not been followed in the implementation of the regional development programmes. - The Eastern Finland (NUTS II area) GDP has lowered by 2.3 % between 1995-1999 in comparison to the EU average, and by over 5 % in comparison to the national average. It is very likely that the GDP/capita of Eastern Finland will not exceed 75 % of EU15 average without (national) specific measures. Views on the future Cohesion Policy: - The enlargement and increase of territorial inequality means that sufficient structural policy resources are required to guarantee a stable regional development. It seems that the proposed 0.45 % of the GDP will not be enough in the enlarged Union.
