Forging a sustainable future together: The high-level report on the future of Cohesion Policy and its implications for the UK.

Professor Andrés Rodríguez-Pose will be presenting on the new EU Cohesion policy and its implications for the UK. Cohesion Policy is the main instrument of the EU’s commitment to shared prosperity. A new report advocates for a revamped policy to address today’s structural challenges. It stresses the need for a Cohesion Policy that, while keeping its focus on economic, social, and territorial cohesion, understands the need to combine competitiveness and inclusivity. Andrés will share the key findings of the report and discuss its implications for the UK policy and levelling-up debate.
