– Interreg brand design manual
The Interreg harmonised brand was built with the aim to build one shared identity for Interreg as a community. This shared identity serves to enhance the visibility and perception of all individual Interreg programmes within the wider EU funding structures, and especially to make it easier for citizens and stakeholders to see the unique contribution of many Interreg programmes in a common way.
The core of the Interreg brand is the shared logo built on the regulatory requirements. It is supported by a Brand Manual setting out default fonts, colours and brand expression that helps programmes and projects build complementary identities within a wider framework of the Interreg Community.
– Jems user manual
Jems stands for the Joint Electronic Monitoring System. Built on HIT 2021-2027, Jems provides a purpose built monitoring system on a free-license basis which means there is no charge for the software. It has been co-developed with the knowledge of Interreg programmes and a wide tester pool to create a harmonised, user-friendly software. Jems user manual is developed for Interreg programmes using Jems to better understand the reasoning behind the development of each section.
