Västsverige, made real.
Västsverige keeps being paid to do one thing more than any other: access to employment for job-seekers and inactive people, including the long-term unemployed and people far from the labour market, also through local employment initiatives and support for labour mobility. Here's the rest of its funded life.
Västsverige, a NUTS2 region in Sweden (SE23), has been awarded €181,200,523 in EU funding. This support has been distributed across 134 projects over a ten-year period, from 2014 to 2024.
The EU is supporting Västsverige primarily through the European Regional Development Fund and the European Social Fund. Key areas of investment include enhancing equal access to lifelong learning for all age groups, providing advanced support services for SMEs, and improving access to employment for job-seekers. These efforts aim to upgrade workforce skills, promote active participation, and strengthen the regional economy.
Funding in Västsverige has seen a shift. The last three years recorded €80,818,167 in awards, a decrease compared to the prior period's €100,382,356. This indicates a recent reduction in the annual funding rate.
