Deadline: January 15, 2026
The European Commission has opened the 2025 call for proposals under the Information Measures for the EU Cohesion Policy (IMREG-2025-INFOME), inviting applications to support projects that communicate the results and impact of EU Cohesion policy across Member States through information and outreach activities.
The main aim of the call is to provide support for the production and dissemination of information and content linked to EU Cohesion policy, including inter alia the Just Transition Fund, or relevant support from the Technical Support Instrument. The proposals should provide coherent, objective and comprehensive information, in order to give an accurate overall picture of the EU Cohesion policy. The proposals should illustrate and assess the role of Cohesion policy in delivering the EU’s political priorities, such as the transition to a greener, more digital economy, development of strategic technologies, housing or the demographic transition and the right to stay, and in addressing current and future challenges for the EU, its Member States, its regions and the local level.
The 2025 call for proposals under the Information Measures for the EU Cohesion Policy (IMREG-2025-INFOME) aims to strengthen awareness and understanding of how the EU’s Cohesion policy supports growth, job creation, and regional development across Europe. It focuses on showcasing how EU funds contribute to reducing disparities among Member States and regions, while also helping citizens connect EU actions to tangible improvements in their lives.
The expected impact for the general public is to raise awareness of the results of Cohesion policy and its effects on citizens’ lives, particularly among Europeans who may be unaware of EU actions in their region. For stakeholders such as national, regional, and local authorities, businesses, academia, and beneficiaries, the initiative seeks to encourage engagement and communication about the impact of Cohesion policy on their regions, while contributing to discussions on the policy’s future direction and the broader future of Europe.
The expected outcomes include increasing media coverage on Cohesion policy, particularly at regional and local levels, enhancing people’s awareness of its results and impact, and achieving concrete outputs such as television or radio broadcasts, online or print coverage, or other dissemination measures that ensure wide outreach and multilingual inclusion.
The scope of eligible activities includes production and distribution of print, multimedia, or audiovisual material, web and social media outreach activities, media events, and organization of conferences, seminars, or workshops. The total indicative budget available for this call is EUR 3.5 million, with grants awarded under the IMREG Project Grants (IMREG-PJG) action type.
