Europe in Action Through Cohesion Policy and “THALIA2021-2027”

The European Union’s Cohesion Policy, through the “THALIA2021-2027” program, continues to invest in projects that improve daily life in Cyprus. Projects such as the new School of Engineering of the University of Cyprus, the “Salina” Park in Larnaca, the Creative Engagement Center, and the redevelopment of the Old GSP, have already been completed. Significant contribution is made to the green transition with photovoltaic parks and energy upgrades, as well as to social inclusion with subsidies for children, care services, and structures for people with disabilities. 2026 is expected to be a year of completion of large projects and preparation for the next programming period, while Cyprus will take over the Presidency of the EU Council, with important negotiations for the new European Budget and the Cohesion Policy Funds.
