12 The overall objective of the MED Programme The programme aims to promote sustainable growth in the Mediterranean area by fostering innovative concepts and practices and a reasonable use of resources and by supporting social integration through an integrated and territorially based cooperation approach It covers totally 57 regions of 10 Eu Member states and 3 IPA Countries

13 Coherence and complementarity of MED programme 1-Structural Funds (ERDF, ESF, EAFRD, EMFF) regional and national programmes The transnational and regional intervention strategies in fields of Mediterranean importance will contribute to improve regional and territorial practices to better identify development potential and challenges at the transnational level (Fields: blue and green growth such as tourism, agriculture and agribusiness, marine and environmental industries, energy, transports but also creative industries and social economy that are especially important for the MED area, training, capacity building.) 2-Macro-regional strategies in the Mediterranean The transnational and regional intervention strategies will contribute to the EU strategy for the Adriatic and Ionian Region (EUSAIR) by supporting the implementation of the Action Plan of the EUSAIR Strategy. The MED Programme shares large parts of its cooperation area with this area together with the Adrion Programme; 3-other EU thematic programmes, Horizon 2020, LIFE +, COSME or the Programme for Social Change and Social Innovation and other cooperation programmes such as ENI MED and Balkan MED.
