EUYOU – Who Will Receive EU Funds from the next EU Budget?

Preparation for the 2028–2034 EU budgetary cycle may introduce new approaches to distributing EU funds. At the heart of the debate lies the strengthened application of the principle of subsidiarity, that is, to what extent it would be more effective to allocate EU funds directly to local actors, primarily municipalities, partially or entirely bypassing the member states as intermediaries. The issue is not merely technical but deeply political: who should exercise control over EU funds, and how can their efficient, transparent, and successful use be guaranteed?

At the webinar, renowned experts, representatives of EU institutions, and domestic policymakers will jointly analyse the opportunities inherent in decentralising resource allocation. The discussion will cover the background to the budgetary reform, experiences to date, and proposals related to the preparation of the new MFF.

The resource allocation principles of the next EU budgetary cycle will determine the role of local levels in the EU’s development policy. The webinar will help viewers navigate the key subjects of debate surrounding the forthcoming financial framework and provide insight into the potential direction of EU funding policy in the early years of the next decade.

The EUYOU project aims to present changes in EU funding policies in an accessible manner, with a particular focus on cohesion policy, the Just Transition Fund, the Technical Support Instrument, and elements of the Next Generation EU programme, including the RRF and REPowerEU.
