Summary

The toolkit provides six concise briefings on key funds and regulations, each complemented by a practical case example, ready-made talking points for meetings, ideas for public engagement, and letter templates tailored for ministries.

To make the most of it, use one briefing per meeting, enrich it with a local example, and follow up with a tailored letter. Reinforcing the same message in your follow-up notes or posts will help ensure consistency and impact.

The content is grounded in UITP’s ongoing advocacy work, as well as in the 2025 MFF Policy Position paper and the 2026 MFF Amendments proposal.

Contents:

  • Connecting Europe Facility (CEF)
  • National and Regional Partnership Plans (NRPPs)
  • European Competitiveness Fund (ECF)
  • Framework Programme 10 (FP10)
  • Civil Protection, Preparedness and Crisis Response
