This dataset provides information from adopted 2021-2027 programmes on expected achievements (baselines, milestones and targets, as relevant) for common and specific output and result (outcome) indicators. The details are provided by adopted programme under the following EU funds - ERDF, ESF+, CF, Interreg (ERDF-IPA-NDICI), JTF, EMFAF, AMIF, BMVI and ISF.

Currently the dataset presents the initial planned indicator values. From 2023 this dataset will also include timeseries information on targets and the cumulative amounts reported for decided and implemented values.

This file contains categorisation data from the ERDF/ESF/Cohesion Fund programmes and in particular it compares **PLANNED AMOUNTS TO IMPLEMENTED INVESTMENTS**.
The data will be updated regularly to reflect updated information transmitted.

***NEW*** 03/2020 - The Commission's COVID-19 response in 2020 involves encouraging reprogramming unallocated EU budget towards the COVID-19 health response and support to the economy, particularly through supporting SMEs and workers. Check out these data stories based on this dataset:

***NEW*** 12/2018 - CLIMATE AND BIODIVERSITY TRACKING: In December 2018 the calculation of amounts planned, decided and spend on categorisation codes (weighted 100% and 40%) for climate tracking and biodiversity tracking were added to the dataset to allow full transparency on how investment under these tracking systems are progressing. Specially designed charts providing visualisations on these tracking systems are linked to the dataset below.

***NEW*** 12/2018 - OPERATIONS (projects) SELECTED: Also in December 2018 the number of operations (projects) linked to each categorisation value reported by priority axis is reflected in the dataset. In many cases programmes provide detailed categorisation information, reporting more than one intervention field code for a specific operation. While leading to more detailed thematic information it leads to multiple reporting of some operations.

TIMING AND FREQUENCY: The categorisation system implementation values are reported once a year by the 350+ programmes at end January. It is then published in this dataset towards the end of February. Thereafter the data is updated regularly to reflect the updated information transmitted by the programmes.
This dataset currently contains data to end-2016 and end- 2017. As the data is cumulative the **ANNUAL VALUES SHOULD NOT BE AGGREGATED *** but may be compared to see progress.

STRUCTURE OF DATASET:
The planned data is provided in tables one for each priority axis (investment pillar) of each programme. The categorisation systems is defined in Implementing Regulation 215/2014 with 8 dimensions in total - http://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX%3A32014R0215.
These dimension represent different ways of categorising the nature of the EU support (i.e. the intervention (activity) field, the form of finance, the territorial context, etc.).
In the programme documents only four4 dimensions were encoded for ERDF/ Cohesion Fund while five5 dimensions were encoded for ESF and can be found in the dataset. Data on three3 other dimensions is only provided in the implementation reports - Location, Economic Dimension, ERDF/CF Thematic Objective - and therefore there is no planned amount to compare.
In analysing the content of the dataset **THE DIFFERENT DIMENSIONS SHOULD BE ANALYSED SEPARATELY AS OTHERWISE DOUBLE COUNTING OF FINANCIAL AMOUNTS WILL OCCUR**.

ANALYSING THEMATIC CONTENT AND PROGRESS: A second dataset found here - https://cohesiondata.ec.europa.eu/EU-Level/ESIF-2014-2020-Categorisation-Crosscutting-Themes-/xns4-t7ym - provides a lookup table for understanding how the Commission uses the intervention field codes to look at cross cutting issues such as investments in "innovation", "enterprise support", etc. That "lookup" dataset also has the "climate change tracking" and "biodiversity tracking" weightings.

WHAT IS EUSF? The European Union Solidarity Fund (EUSF) was set up to respond to major natural disasters and express European solidarity to disaster-stricken regions within Europe. The Fund was created as a reaction to the severe floods in Central Europe in the summer of 2002. Since then, it has been used for disasters covering a range of different catastrophic events including floods, forest fires, earthquakes, storms and drought.

The dataset presents financial and other information on the applications submitted for EUSF support between 002 and 2020.

This dataset presents information on EU payments to the ESI Funds programmes as well as to FEAD, IPA-E and ENI supported programmes.
Annual snapshots are provided in the data and therefore the data **must** be filtered by year to have an accurate view of the total EU planned amount and payments made.
Data is reported on cumulative basis, i.e. the amounts shown in 2017 represent the cumulative payments made from the beginning of the programming period (2014-2017 up to date).
The dataset is updated on a daily basis.

2021-2027 financial details broken down by Fund / MS / programme / Policy objective / specific objective / Categorisation dimension.
This dataset provides information on planned total and EU financing for 11 different EU Funds (2021-2027) in current prices.

The data is taken from multiple categorisation tables in adopted programmes and is broken down by fund, programme, priority, policy objective objective, specific objective, category of region (more developed, less developed, etc. where available) and by the dimensions in the categorisation system. The values from the differnent dimensions should not be aggregated as this would lead to doublecounting. Find out more about the cohesion policy categorisation system here: https://cohesiondata.ec.europa.eu/stories/s/2021-2027-categorisation-information-system/hhu3-atyz.

It is updated daily to reflect any modifications (i.e. thematic reallocations) agreed between the Member States and the Commission.

The data covers the more than 480 programmes and includes the EU and national co-financing covered by the adoption decision. Financial allocations in the adopted programmes may change over time (i.e. transfers between themes, between funds).

For ERDF, ESF and CF the "priority" columns relate financing envelopes in the programmes; the policy objectives and specific objectives relate to the fixed lists of defined objectives set in the specific fund Regulations.

If downloading, check the format of financial amounts and where necessary change your regional settings and default formatting in your chosen software. You can check the results of your aggregation of the financial data by comparing results either the charts on the public platform.
