„Important Characteristics“
Integrated approach
• cross-sectoral attempt and problem solving
• support integrated territorial development
• i.e. the impact on relevant sectors in a given territory
should be taken into account
• territorial conditions of a specific area to be
considered (e.g. infrastructure, resources and
settlements, economic, social, ecological and cultural
conditions).
demonstrate how the project applies an integrated
territorial approach to the issue concerned

„Important Characteristics“
Durability
•aim at producing results and establish structures,
which exist beyond the project implementation period
• the programme funding should serve as a start-up
financing towards durable and sustainable solutions
•in practice, the projects should demonstrate a
problemsolution orientation, that is a clear path from
planning and studies to concrete large-scale investment
projects expected to prepare or launch

„Important Characteristics“
Transferability
– joint development and testing of transferable results
– practical solutions, “blue prints”, good practice
– which could be applied to full scale projects in the
relevant Convergence and Competitiveness
programmes in order to
– increase value for EU money and allow benefits for
the target groups other than the institutions
participating in the original project
– (National authorities and managing authorities of
Convergence and Competitiveness programmes are
requested to assist in transfer of (wide applicable)
project results.)

„Important Characteristics“
Constrains
– Constraints (if any) are independent of the project and
might pose a potential threat for the successful
implementation of the project
– Factors and conditions outside the partners’ control
necessary in order to achieve the objective of the project
(external conditions)
– Risks to be taken into consideration (assess their
probability). What impact can they have on project?
– Example: pre-conditions required before the project can
start the realisation of planned infrastructural investments?
– How have these constrains been taken into account?
