For people living in border regions, a journey can involve two countries – but also:
😵‍💫 two ticketing systems,
😵‍💫 timetables that don’t connect or
😵‍💫 public transport planned separately on either side.

Europeans have a practical vision for what could change.

🚃 Consultations on the future of Interreg point towards transport services planned more closely across borders, greener mobility solutions and targeted improvements where connections are still missing.

It’s a shift from looking at transport on either side of the border separately to looking at the journey as a whole.

🇪🇺 These priorities are helping inform discussions about Interreg after 2027.

🎤 Meet the speakers of the 31st Beyond Borders: Breakfast Debate

How will the new Skills Portability Initiative make it easier to live in one country and work in another? We are pleased to welcome two speakers from the European Commission to explore what it means for :

🔹 Koen Nomden (DG EMPL), Team Leader for Transparency and Portability of Skills and Qualifications, will present the initiative and what it changes for workers, employers and public authorities.

🎉 b-solutions has reached 200 cases, a major milestone for cross-border cooperation in Europe.

Since 2018, the initiative has helped public authorities tackle legal and administrative obstacles across EU internal borders, from mobility and public services to environmental management and institutional cooperation.

The 200th case comes from the Ohrid–Prespa transboundary region, shared by Albania, Greece and North Macedonia, where partners are working to jointly manage the lake system and protect biodiversity across different legal frameworks.

b-solutions is managed by AEBR on behalf of DG REGIO.

📣 One week to go!

Ever had a qualification from one side of a border not quite translate on the other? In border regions, recognising qualifications is one of the most common practical challenges for cross-border workers and employers.

The 31st Beyond Borders Breakfast Debate will focus on the Skills Portability Initiative, adopted by the European Commission as part of the Fair Labour Mobility Package, and on how easier recognition and digital portability of skills can help workers find jobs faster and employers address labour shortages.

🚉 Every day, millions of Europeans travel across borders for work, school, healthcare or family. Yet timetables that don't match, tickets that don't transfer and routes that stop at the border can turn a short trip into a long one.

Interreg helps regions connect their routes, services and transport systems, so everyday travel gets simpler on both sides.

Because getting to work, class or the doctor should be easy, whichever side of the border you live on.
