Joint positions on relevant policy issues are developed to raise the regional voice in the European decision making process. The partner regions are Saxony-Anhalt, acting as the coordinator, North Rhine Westphalia and Lower Saxony, (GER), Huelva, Asturias and Catalunya (SPA), Lombardia and Piemonte (ITA), North East and North West of England (UK), Limburg (NL), Masovia (PL), and Ida-Viru (EST). Contacts to further chemical regions have been established to enlarge the network and become a stakeholder at European level. Rhineland Palatinate and Schleswig Holstein have recently joined the network. The total project budget is 1,639,000 €, 61% of which is funded by the European Union. More details about the ECRN can be found on its website at www.ecrn.net . INTERREG IIIC is an EU-funded programme that helps Europe’s regions form partnerships to work together on common projects. These projects enable regions to share knowledge and experiences that will help them develop new solutions to economic, environmental and social challenges. 98 percent of all European Union regions are involved in INTERREG IIIC projects. There are more than 250 INTERREG IIIC projects running, involving 2,500 local and regional actors from 50 countries. 20 percent of these actors are from the new EU Member States. More information on INTERREG IIIC can be found on www.interreg3c.net .
