The Cohesion Fund

The Cohesion Fund aims to reduce disparities in the level of development currently existing in the case of the poorest member states of the Community. This special solidarity fund was set up in 1993 to help improve the situation of the four poorest member states, namely, Greece, Portugal, Ireland and Spain. It is possible to implement major transport and environmental project by using funding granted by the Cohesion Fund.
