This informational webinar provides a practical overview of the second and final call for applications for cross-border regions interested in participating in the "Interreg Mechanism for Promoting Active Communities and Territories" (IMPACT) project.
During the webinar, the OECD and the European Commission's Directorate-General for Regional and Urban Policy (DG REGIO) will briefly present IMPACT, highlight key updates relevant to the second call, share lessons learned from the first round of applications, and address participants' questions.
This webinar builds on the first informational webinar, held on 24 February 2026, during which the project was presented in full, and an extensive question-and-answer session took place. Participants are encouraged to consult the webinar recording and the FAQ document, prepared from the questions received (available here).
The webinar is aimed at cross-border actors in the European Union and neighbouring countries involved in territorial and community development, including regional and local governments and community development structures active in border regions (e.g. local action groups and fisheries local action groups). It also targets cross-border governance bodies such as European Groupings of Territorial Co-operation (EGTCs) and Euroregions.
