Our activities

Core activities

ITEM carries out interdisciplinary research in the context of cross-border Euroregional mobility and cooperation issues, paying particular attention to practical solutions. This starts with an interdisciplinary perspective, from which research takes place in the legal, economic, cultural and administrative fields, in cooperation with the various faculties within Maastricht University. Through both small-scale contract research and also extensive annual reports, ITEM tackles the issues surrounding the internationalisation of the world, and its impact on border regions. Our research revolves around translating scientific knowledge into practical solutions.

@NRWinEU @ITEM_UM @beneluxunion @ArthVanDijk concludes the last panel:

"We have signed a lot of letters of intent, but we need political #leadership with a vision. Currently, the time we need to make decisions is very long, but we don't have that time. If we don't have the guts to decide, nothing will happen."
