File description: The financial allocations for Thematic Objective (TO) and Fund have been extracted 09/01/2015. The file contains the Thematic Objective allocations for the programming period 2014/2020 for all the 28 Member States. Please notice that the Partnership agreements are going under revision to include the European Maritime and Fishery Fund (EMFF); therefore, some data may change in the following months.

Disclaimer: Please notice that the financial allocations reported in this file are not entirely finalised and they may change during the following months.

The report compares achievements with finances in all ESF CCIs and priority axes at the level of the investment priority, broken down by category of region. Specifically it compares the sum of all successful outcomes indicated by the common result indicators - job-search, being in education or training, gaining a qualification, being in employment upon leaving - with a) the total costs of the selected projects and b) the declared expenditure. The data on common result indicators are taken from Table 2A of the annual implementation reports. The financial data are taken from Table 7 of the AIR.

The EU's Cohesion Policy invests in health as an asset for regional development and competitiveness, in order to reduce economic and social disparities. Investment may address a number of different areas.

Under the CRIII+ proposals, at the request of a country, the resources available for programming for the year 2020, could be transferred between the ERDF, the ESF and the Cohesion Fund.
The dataset below show the increase and decreases in EU funding by country, programme fund and category of region since the adoption of the CRII package. As no new EU funds were available the sum of changes overall is normally "zero" (increases = decreases).

This dataset includes the figures by Fund (European Regional Development Fund, European Social Fund, Cohesion Fund,Youth Employment Initiative).

This dataset provides information on expected achievements (targets) set for ERDF and Cohesion Fund programmes **specific indicators** defined by national and regional programmes, the decided (forecasts from selected projects) and implemented values.

The reference date for the annual reporting of progress by the programmes achievements is the end of each calendar year.
This dataset contains:
- Time series of the cumulative amounts reported annually for decided and implemented values (i.e. 2016 values include the 2015 values);
- To avoid double counting, the cumulative values from different years **should NOT be aggregated**;
- Allows comparison of the targets year on year (targets change with reallocation of financial resources);
- Allows comparison of decided (forecast) and implemented values with the targets set (allowing users to calculate the % rate of progress);

For more information on the common indicators' definitions used by each fund please go to the "Related Information" sections at the bottom of the fund specific pages and the data on the **common indicators** is available in this separate dataset: https://cohesiondata.ec.europa.eu/2014-2020/ESIF-2014-2020-Achievement-Details/aesb-873i
