We and our French friends got together and asked ourselves and each other: ‘What could we do together?’ Initially, we didn’t think of healthcare as an eligible sector since it’s the responsibility of individual Member States.
Sestali smo se s svojimi francoskimi kolegi ter sami sebe in drug drugega vprašali, kaj bi lahko naredili skupaj.‘ Najprej se nam zdravstveni sektor ni zdel primeren, saj so zanj odgovorne posamezne države članice.
But then we looked at the issue from the perspective of a crossborder project and set ourselves the goal of ensuring that crossborder populations enjoy the same health benefits as frontier workers." o 24 _BAR_
Nato pa smo na vprašanje pogledali z vidika čezmejnega projekta in si postavili cilj, da prebivalcem čezmejnega območja zagotovimo enake zdravstvene ugodnosti, kot jih imajo obmejni delavci.“
In 1992, the first INTERREG agreement was signed between the two establishments, and it is still running today: Mouscron provides haemodialysis for 300 Belgian and French patients a year, while Tourcoing treats 800 AIDS patients.
Leta 1992 sta ustanovi podpisali prvi sporazum v okviru programa INTERREG, ki velja še danes: v Mouscronu letno zagotovijo hemodializo tristo belgijskim in francoskim bolnikom, medtem ko v Tourcoingu zdravijo osemsto obolelih za AIDS-om.
Other agreements will deal with other pathologies in other parts of the crossborder region.
Drugi sporazumi bodo obravnavali druga bolezenska stanja v drugih predelih čezmejne regije.
"Any agreement we draw up means significant economies of scale thanks to the complementary nature of our work.
„Vsak sporazum, ki ga sestavimo, prinaša pomembne ekonomije obsega zaradi medsebojno dopolnjujoče se narave našega dela.
At the same time, costly equipment remains profitable and there is close cooperation between healthcare suppliers," points out Henri Lewalle.
Hkrati ostane draga oprema dobičkonosna, ponudniki zdravstvenega varstva pa tesno sodelujejo,“ poudarja Henri Lewalle.
"We wanted to build on this partnership with INTERREG II.
„To partnerstvo smo hoteli nadgraditi z INTERREG-om II.
In 1999, we created the French-Belgian Health Observatory, which is a federation of all the regional stakeholders in the sector (such as French health insurance funds, Belgian mutual societies and doctors’ associations) in the crossborder area – there are 55 member institutions in total."
Leta 1999 smo ustanovili Francosko-belgijsko zdravstveno opazovalnico, ki je zveza vseh regionalnih zainteresiranih skupin v sektorju (kot so francoski skladi za zdravstveno zavarovanje, belgijske vzajemne družbe in zdravniška združenja) na čezmejnem območju – članskih ustanov je skupaj petinpetdeset.“
Erasing the border also means focusing on the best legacy of what has often been a turbulent history, as the many remains of fortresses and other strongholds show.
Odpravljanje meje pomeni tudi osredotočanje na najboljšo zapuščino zgodovine, ki je bila pogosto burna, na kar kažejo številni ostanki trdnjav in drugih utrdb.
In this connection, the ‘Network of Fortified Towns’ – with considerable support from INTERREG – has transformed former conflict zones into meeting places.
V zvezi s tem je „Mreža utrjenih mest“ (Network of Fortified Towns) ob precejšnji pomoči programa INTERREG preoblikovala nekdanja konfliktna območja v kraje za srečanja.
e Observatory became a ‘European Economic Interest Grouping’ (EEIG) under INTERREG III in 2002. is legal basis facilitated the conclusion of the French-Belgian Framework Agreement on crossborder cooperation in healthcare, one of the first of its kind in Europe, on 30 September 2005.
Opazovalnica je leta 2002 v okviru programa INTERREG III postala „evropsko gospodarsko interesno združenje“ (EGIZ). Ta pravna podlaga je olajšala sklenitev francosko-belgijskega okvirnega sporazuma o čezmejnem sodelovanju na področju zdravstvenega varstva, enega prvih te vrste v Evropi, ki je bil podpisan 30. septembra 2005.
"It’s fantastic that an INTERREG project led to an agreement between states.
„Fantastično je, da je projekt INTERREG pripeljal do sporazuma med dvema državama.
What’s more, that was just the beginning…"
Še več, to je bil šele začetek …“
"Originally," says Solange Leclercq, coordinator for the Nord-Pas-de-Calais coastline (France), "local stakeholders in Gravelines wanted to capitalise on a rich heritage of fortifications by forging links with other fortified towns in neighbouring regions of Belgium and the United Kingdom, specifically West Flanders and Kent." is desire led to the creation of an INTERREG II project in 1996, which was extended between 2000 and 2006 by INTERREG III and is managed by three partners: the Province of West Flanders (project leader), the Syndicat mixte de la Côte d’Opale in France and Kent County Council. ere were 17 member sites to begin with.
„Prvotno,“ pravi Solange Leclercq, koordinatorka za obalo Nord-Pas-de-Calais (Francija), „so želele lokalne zainteresirane strani v Gravelinesu izkoristiti bogato dediščino utrdb z vzpostavljanjem povezav z drugimi utrjenimi mesti v sosednjih regijah v Belgiji in Združenem kraljestvu, zlasti z Zahodno Flandrijo in Kentom.“ Ta želja je leta 1996 privedla do oblikovanja projekta INTERREG II, ki ga je med letoma 2000 in 2006 razširil projekt INTERREG III in ki ga upravljajo trije partnerji: provinca Zahodna Flandrija (vodja projekta), Skupna zveza Côte d'Opale (Syndicat mixte de la Côte d'Opale) v Franciji in okrožni svet Kenta (Kent County Council).
By 2007, there were 25.
Na začetku je bilo članskih lokacij sedemnajst, do leta 2007 pa že petindvajset.
Activities carried out under this project combine joint crossborder ventures and specific initiatives by member sites, all of which aim to meet the scheme’s objectives.
Dejavnosti, ki potekajo v okviru tega projekta, združujejo skupna čezmejna vlaganja in posebne pobude članskih lokacij, namen vseh pa je izpolniti cilje programa.
"INTERREG loans and the people involved were both decisive factors in this project: without the loans, the project could still have existed, but it couldn’t have done as much."
„Posojila v okviru INTERREG-a in vključeni ljudje so bili odločilni dejavniki v tem projektu: brez posojil bi projekt še vedno obstajal, vendar ne bi mogel toliko narediti.“ Sodelovanje med državama pa ni bil edini izziv: „Ena od koristi INTERREG-a, ki smo jih imeli tukaj v Franciji, je, da je pomagal mestom in celo različnim departmajem v isti vladni organizaciji bolje sodelovati.“
Cooperation between countries was not the only challenge: "One benefit of INTERREG for us here in France is that it has helped towns and even different departments within the same government organisation to work better together." e Observatory opened the door to other major cooperation projects like TRANSCARDS, which enables the 50,000 inhabitants of iérache, a rural region straddling the French-Belgian border, to receive treatment in seven French and Belgian hospitals regardless of their nationality. is project was the inspiration for implementing ‘organised access zones for crossborder healthcare’ (ZOASTs), which allow the population in border areas to receive outpatient and hospital care on either side of the border.
Opazovalnica je odprla vrata drugim velikim projektom sodelovanja, kot je TRANSCARDS, ki petdeset tisoč prebivalcem podeželske regije iérache na francosko belgijski meji omogoča zdravljenje v sedmih francoskih in belgijskih bolnišnicah ne glede na državljanstvo. Ta projekt je spodbudil uvedbo „organiziranih con dostopa do čezmejnega zdravstva“ (organised access zones for crossborder healthcare, ZOAST), ki omogočajo prebivalstvu obmejnih območij zunajbolnišnično in bolnišnično oskrbo na obeh straneh meje.
Another ZOAST covers the urban areas of Mouscron, Tourcoing, Roubaix and Wattrelos. is involves four hospitals and some 300,000 people.
Drugi program ZOAST pokriva mestna območja Mouscron, Tourcoing, Roubaix in Wattrelos ter vključuje štiri bolnišnice in približno 300 000 ljudi.
One main aim of the INTERREG III project (approx. €11,218,000, of which €3,404,000 came from the ERDF) was to promote the use of new technologies.
Eden od glavnih ciljev projekta INTERREG III (približno 11 218 000 EUR, od tega 3 404 000 iz ESRR) je bil spodbujati uporabo novih tehnologij.
Various systems of audio guides were tested in pilot towns across the three regions, and finally a system operating based on mobile phones - first piloted in Menen, Flanders - was chosen.
V pilotnih mestih v treh regijah so bili preizkušeni različni avdiovodniki in na koncu je bil izbran sistem, ki deluje na podlagi mobilnih telefonov in ki so ga prvič poskusno izvajali v Menenu v Flandriji.
Audio-guided visits and a website (www.fortifications.org) were also set up to support the guidebooks for each language, the trilingual leaflet and the range of printed material.
Vzpostavljeni so bili tudi avdio vodeni obiski in spletna stran (www.fortifications.org), ki bi podpirali vodnike za vsak jezik, trijezični letak in vrsto tiskanega gradiva.
Another priority is to provide access to as broad a range of people as possible, notably disabled people: "at was the hidden part of the iceberg, an immense task with barely any visible results. ere were no European standards in this area and we needed to establish joint criteria. To do this, we audited each member
Naslednja prednostna naloga je zagotoviti dostop do čim širšega kroga ljudi, zlasti invalidov: „To je bil skriti del ledene gore, ogromna naloga z malo rezultati.
"Over time and with the various stages of INTERREG, we have moved from making agreements on specific pathologies (AIDS, renal failure, etc.) to developing a structure for access to organised healthcare (e.g. TRANSCARDS, ZOASTs, emergency health services).
„Sčasoma in z različnimi fazami INTERREG-a smo s sklepanja sporazumov glede določenih bolezenskih stanj (AIDS, odpoved ledvic itd.) prešli na razvijanje strukture za dostop do organiziranega zdravstvenega varstva (npr.
Our ambition now is to develop a full range of crossborder healthcare for everyone living in the region. anks to INTERREG and European law, which does a lot to promote such agreements, this is a wholly realistic aim." o 24 _BAR_ p. 21 _BAR_

Inspector-General, International Relations Department of the Walloon Region young people will be employed and awarded certificates in restoring the fortifications, an area in which staff costs are normally very high. e high level of scientific cooperation between the three regions should also be discussed – it has applications in restoration work as well as in popularisation.
Tri vprašanja za Jean-Pierra Robbeetsa, generalnega inšpektorja z oddelka za mednarodne odnose Valonske regije zaposleni in nagrajeni s potrdilom, da so obnavljali utrdbe, to pa je področje, na katerem so stroški za osebje navadno zelo visoki. Razpravljati je treba tudi o visoki ravni znanstvenega sodelovanja med temi tremi regijami, saj se uporablja pri obnovitvenem delu in popularizaciji.
However, Solange Leclercq insists that the most important factor to consider is "the sheer amount of time and resources required for coordination." is is confirmed by her Flemish counterpart, Sophie Muyllaert, who emphasises the quality of this partnership: "We had an efficient team at crossborder level.
Vendar Solange Leclercq trdi, da je najpomembnejši dejavnik, ki ga je treba upoštevati, „sama količina časa in virov, potrebnih za usklajevanje“.
We met every two months and had no real language problems or issues with how to divide up funds.
To potrjuje njena flamska kolegica Sophie Muyllaert, ki poudarja kakovost tega partnerstva: „Imeli smo učinkovito skupino na čezmejni ravni.
We’ve always got on very well in that respect."
V zvezi s tem smo se vedno dobro razumeli.“
• How would you rate almost two decades of crossborder cooperation between Belgium and France?
• Kako bi ocenili skoraj dve desetletji čezmejnega sodelovanja med Belgijo in Francijo?
I’m very pleased with it because it has been very exciting and the different stages of INTERREG in which we’ve taken part since 1990 have always worked very well.
Zelo zadovoljen sem z njim, ker je bilo zelo zanimivo, različne faze INTERREG-a, v katerih smo sodelovali od leta 1990, pa so vedno delovale zelo dobro.
From an administrative point of view, we have never had to apply the automatic decommitment rule(1), for instance.
Z upravnega vidika nam nikoli ni bilo treba uporabiti na primer pravila o samodejnem prenehanju(1).
Most importantly, a huge number of projects have been implemented in all areas.
Najpomembneje je, da se je na vseh področjih izvajalo veliko število projektov.
Many of these emerged from sustainable activities and partnerships.
Veliko jih je nastalo iz trajnostnih dejavnosti in partnerstev.
Of course, within the crossborder region, some areas are more open to cooperation than others.
V čezmejni regiji so nekatera področja seveda bolj odprta za sodelovanje kot druga.
Everything is changing for 2007-2013: the long-standing Forti-fi ed Towns Network project has borne fruit and the partners involved do not intend to renew it formally.
Za obdobje 2007–2013 pa se pričakujejo spremembe: dolgoletni projekt Mreža utrjenih mest je prinesel rezultate, vključeni partnerji pa ga ne nameravajo uradno obnoviti.
Rather, they are planning to move away from fortifications and expand into different areas. e member towns may be interested in how other projects have developed, whether they are linked to transnational cooperation (INTERREG III B) like ‘Septentrion: from fortified town to sustainable town’ and ‘Crossing the Lines’ or to interregional cooperation (INTERREG III C).
Namesto tega načrtujejo odmik od utrdb in razširitev na različna področja. Članska mesta morda zanima, kako so se razvijali drugi projekti, ali so povezani s transnacionalnim sodelovanjem (INTERREG III B), kot sta „Sever: od utrjenega do trajnostnega mesta“ (Septentrion: from fortified town to sustainable town) in „Prečkanje črt“ (Crossing the Lines,) in z medregionalnim sodelovanjem (INTERREG III C).
• Is cooperation a source of innovation?Innovation is essential for progress: bringing down borders is an innovation in itself!
• Ali je sodelovanje vir inovacij?Inovacije so bistvene za napredek: odpraviti meje je inovacija sama po sebi!
Crossborder initiatives such as technology exchanges, joint tourist offices, access to healthcare and crossborder public transport are also innovative ideas.
Čezmejne pobude, kot so izmenjave tehnologij, skupne turistične pisarne, dostop do zdravstvenega varstva in čezmejni javni prevoz, so prav tako inovativne zamisli.
• What do you think is the recipe for successful cooperation?
Muzej sodobne umetnosti in muzej moderne umetnosti
First of all, you need a certain state of mind: you must want to succeed together.
• Kakšen je po vašem mnenju recept za uspešno sodelovanje?Prvič, potreben je določen način razmišljanja: skupaj si morate želeti uspeh.
Politicians have to be committed to the project.
Politiki morajo biti zavezani projektu.
You must also be very familiar with your partners’ administrative setup.
Zelo dobro morate poznati tudi upravno strukturo partnerjev.
Finally, you must be transparent and involve the citizens.
In biti morate jasni in vključevati državljane.
Not because it’s a nice gesture, but to ensure that they take ownership of the projects while showing them that Europe is also active at local level.
Ne zato, ker je to lepo, ampak da zagotovite identifikacijo s projektom, hkrati pa partnerjem pokažete, da je Evropa dejavna tudi na lokalni ravni.
Hornu, in the Belgian province of Hainaut, is not a fortified town, but it is home to an extremely important structure built between 1810 and 1830: Grand-Hornu, a unique example of functional urbanism from the beginning of the industrial age. e site, built in neoclassical style, comprises workshops, offices and residences for both workers and directors.
Hornu, v belgijski provinci Hainaut, ni utrjeno mesto, je pa dom zelo pomembnega kompleksa Grand-Hornu, zgrajenega med letoma 1810 in 1830, ki je edinstven primer funkcionalističnega urbanizma iz začetka industrijske dobe.
With their many arches, pediments and half-moon windows, the old colliery buildings are a magnificent setting for the MAC’s, the Museum of Contemporary Art of the French Community of Belgium, which has been there since 2002. e MAC’s, which aims to contribute to bringing a devastated sub-region up to speed culturally and economically, has a staff of 50 and is visited by 75,000 people each year.

Da bi to naredili, smo za vsako člansko mesto opravili presojo z vidika dostopnosti, vzpostavili povezave med različnimi departmaji in sodelovali z organizacijami, ki se ukvarjajo posebej z invalidnostjo.“
Ever since it was founded, the museum has focused on cooperation.
Muzej se vse od svoje ustanovitve osredotoča na sodelovanje.
"INTERREG, which was launched at the same time as the museum opened, has been a boon for us," says Julien Foucart, who works on the INTERREG project at MAC’s.
„INTERREG, ki se je začel izvajati istočasno, kot se je odprl muzej, je bil darilo za nas,“ pravi Julien Foucart, ki dela na projektu programa INTERREG v MAC's.
"INTERREG gave us the chance to conclude a formal partnership agreement with the MAM, the Greater Lille Museum of Modern Art, which was founded in 1983.
„INTERREG nam je dal možnost skleniti uradni partnerski sporazum z MAM-om, Muzejem moderne umetnosti metropolitanskega območja Lille, ki je bil ustanovljen leta 1983.
We have a lot of things in common: the same regional culture, the same operational structure and the same type of location - we are located on remarkable sites that are relatively close to one another. anks to INTERREG, we immediately benefited from an influx of French visitors and, most importantly, the MAM’s valuable experience."
Veliko imamo skupnega: enaka regionalna kultura, enaka operativna struktura in enaka vrsta lokacije – smo na pomembnih mestih, ki sta sorazmerno blizu. Zahvaljujoč INTERREG-u smo imeli takoj koristi od pritoka francoskih obiskovalcev in, kar je najpomembneje, dragocenih izkušenj MAM-a.“
In the final stage, the focus was on developing educational initiatives – the Flemish association ‘Horizon Educatief’ was the driving force in this area. is stage was not without its challenges, which mainly arose from the highly centralised nature of education in France and the fact that it is not the Province but the Region that is responsible for education in Flanders.
V končni fazi je bil poudarjen razvoj izobraževalnih pobud, flamsko združenje „Izobraževalno obzorje“ (Horizon Educati-ef) pa je bilo gonilna sila na tem področju. Ta faza ni bila brez izzivov, ki so izhajali predvsem iz visoko centralizirane narave izobraževanja v Franciji in dejstva, da je za izobraževanje v Flandriji odgovorna regija in ne provinca.
However, the high point of this partnership came in 2005 when the MAM, which had to close until 2009 for extension work, sent its collections and o 24 _BAR_

„V samo nekaj letih smo skupaj veliko dosegli,“ pravi Dominique Cominotto, podpredsednik muzeja MAC's.
"Now, we have much more than just a partnership, we have real integration between our teams.

With a total budget of around €248.5 million, of which just over €138 million comes from the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF), the INTERREG IV “France-Wallonie-Vlaanderen” programme has four priorities:
Program INTERREG IV „Francija-Valonija-Flandrija“ s skupnim proračunom v višini približno 248,5 milijona EUR, od katerega prihaja več kot 138 milijonov EUR iz Evropskega sklada za regionalni razvoj (ESRR), ima štiri prednostne naloge:
1) boosting economic development in the area through a coherent and integrated crossborder approach;
1) pospešiti gospodarski razvoj na območju s skladnim in celostnim čezmejnim pristopom;
2) developing and promoting the crossborder region’s identity through cultural activities and tourism;
2) razvijati in promovirati identiteto čezmejne regije s kulturnimi dejavnostmi in turizmom;
Ideas in the pipeline include the Navettes de l’Art project (transport by coach between Ghent, Lille, Hornu, Lens, etc), the Musées jardins project (summer activities geared towards families), pooling documents held by the four museums and even an exhibition - in a former customs house.
Zamisli, ki potekajo, vključujejo projekt Avtobusi umetnosti (Navettes de l'Art) (avtobusni prevoz med Ghentom, Lillom, Hornum, Lensom itd.), projekt Vrtni muzeji (Musées jardins) (poletne dejavnosti, prilagojene družinam), združevanje dokumentacije, ki jo imajo ti štirje muzeji, in celo razstavo v nekdanji carinarnici.
4) making joint management of the area more dynamic with development that is sustainable, coordinated and in step with living conditions.
4) vliti več dinamike v skupno upravljanje območja s trajnostnim in usklajenim razvojem, ki bo v koraku z življenjskimi razmerami.
Technical support for purposes of instruction and project implementation is also provided.
Zagotovljena je tudi tehnična podpora za namene dajanja navodil in izvajanja projekta.
With 10.5 million people living across an area covering 61,604 km², the region covered by the cooperation project represents 1.84% and 2.6% of the European Union’s surface area and population respectively.

"INTERREG cooperation between France and Belgium works just as well as tobacco smuggling did in the old days," jokes Didier Tellier, Head of Information at the Directorate-General for External Relations of the Walloon Region, the managing authority of the INTERREG III A France-Wallonia-Flanders programme (see text in box).
„Sodelovanje v okviru INTERREG-a med Francijo in Belgijo poteka prav tako dobro kot tihotapljenje tobaka v starih časih,“ se pošali Didier Tellier, vodja informiranja Generalnega direktorata za zunanje odnose Valonske regije, ki je organ upravljanja programa INTERREG III A Francija-Valonija-Flandrija (glej besedilo v okviru).
"Of course, all this is made easier by our culture and geographical proximity.
„Vse to seveda lajšata naša kulturna in geografska bližina.
But there is another factor that is especially important: the involvement of the people impacted by the project.
Vendar obstaja še en dejavnik, ki je posebno pomemben: sodelovanje ljudi, na katere vpliva projekt.
In this respect, we should probably improve our communication.
