Description
In 2021 JASPERS completed 102 advisory assignments, including 85 in the European Union. Support was provided for the preparation of projects in a variety of sectors: transport; energy; innovation; digital and human capital; water and environment; climate change mitigation and adaptation; urban development; circular economy; and capacity building.
In 2021, the European Commission and the European Investment Bank committed to financing JASPERS over several years. JASPERS’ support to beneficiary countries — EU Member States and Western Balkan candidate countries for EU accession — is needed more than ever in light of the impact of recent conflicts on the global economy, uncertainties linked to the COVID-19 pandemic and the ever-growing challenges of climate change adaptation and the transition to a carbon-neutral economy.
