Double success in INTERREG Central Europe’s first application round

core-consult is enjoying a double success in the first call for applications of the INTERREG programme for Central Europe. In the transport priority, RUMOBIL has been selected for funding. The project was elaborated by core-consult with Saxony-Anhalt’s Ministry for Regional Development and Transport as Lead Partner. The project addresses the challenge to connect rural areas affected by demographic change to the main passenger transport networks.

The second successful application was elaborated for Thuringia’s Association for Rural Development as Lead Partner. Before the background of the upcoming Luther bimillennial in 2017, a European Cultural Route of the Reformation will be established and an application for official recognition by the Council of Europe prepared.

In total, 623 applications were submitted in the two-stage call of the programme. Only 35 applicants were selected for funding by the Monitoring Committee.
