Flash Eurobarometer 480: Citizens' awareness and perception of EU Regional policy

The survey published today is part of a series of surveys that examine Europeans’ awareness and attitudes towards EU Regional Policy - the Flash Eurobarometer surveys 452, 423, 384 and 298. It begins by asking whether respondents have heard about any EU co-financed projects in the area where they live, and, if so, whether they believe those projects have had a positive or negative impact on their lives. Respondents are then asked about their familiarity with the EU’s two regional funds and whether they have benefited personally from an EU-funded project. The survey also provides information on the sources of information used by respondents to find out about the policy. The survey then examines respondents' views on the priorities of the EU's regional policy, asking them which geographical regions and which investment sectors the EU should target and who should take decisions about regional investments. It concludes by looking at public awareness of the EU outermost regions and about EU support to cross-border cooperation, including of Intereg and of four EU macro-regional strategies – in the Baltic Sea, along the Danube, in the Adriatic and Ionian Sea and in the Alpine region. #####The results by volumes are distributed as follows: * Volume A: Countries * Volume AA: Groups of countries * Volume A' (AP): Trends * Volume AA' (AAP): Trends of groups of countries * Volume B: EU/socio-demographics * Volume B' (BP) : Trends of EU/ socio-demographics * Volume C: Country/socio-demographics ---- Researchers may also contact GESIS - Leibniz Institute for the Social Sciences: [https://www.gesis.org/eurobarometer](https://www.gesis.org/eurobarometer)本次发布的调查是一系列考察欧洲民众对欧盟区域政策（EU Regional Policy）认知与态度的调研项目的组成部分，即快速欧洲晴雨表（Flash Eurobarometer）第452、423、384与298期调查。 调查开篇首先询问受访者是否知晓其居住地区的欧盟联合资助项目，若知晓，则进一步了解其认为此类项目对自身生活产生了积极还是消极影响。 随后，受访者将被问及对欧盟两大区域基金的熟悉程度，以及是否曾从欧盟资助项目中获得个人收益。本次调查还收集了受访者获取该政策相关信息的渠道信息。 后续环节聚焦受访者对欧盟区域政策优先级的看法，要求其指明欧盟应重点扶持的地理区域与投资领域，以及区域投资决策的制定主体。 调查最后考察了公众对欧盟最偏远地区的认知，以及欧盟对跨境合作的支持情况，其中包括跨界合作计划（Interreg）以及四项欧盟宏观区域战略：波罗的海地区、多瑙河沿岸、亚得里亚海与爱奥尼亚海地区，以及阿尔卑斯山区。 #####按卷次划分的调查结果分布如下： * 卷A：按国家分类 * 卷AA：按国家集团分类 * 卷A'（AP）：趋势分析 * 卷AA'（AAP）：国家集团趋势分析 * 卷B：欧盟/社会人口学维度 * 卷B'（BP）：欧盟/社会人口学维度趋势分析 * 卷C：按国家/社会人口学维度分类 ---- 研究人员亦可联系莱布尼茨社会科学研究所（GESIS - Leibniz Institute for the Social Sciences）：[https://www.gesis.org/eurobarometer](https://www.gesis.org/eurobarometer)
