Structural Funds 2007-2013 in France
What are the European structural funds? How can project leaders benefit from them?
The purpose of this section is to give you the keys to the new Structural Funds programming 2007-2013: understanding the EU background of structural funds, news monitoring, methodological advice... There are now two Structural Funds, with a total budget of around EUR 308 billion for a seven-year period: the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) and the European Social Fund (ESF).
In addition, Member States will benefit from a support fund for rural development, EAFRD, and from a fund for Fisheries, the EFF. In some member states, particularly states that joined in 2004 or 2007, the EU continues to support the modernisation of infrastructure by the Cohesion Fund.
