Wat is b-solutions?
b-solutions is plan B voor projectmanagers die bij de ontwikkeling van hun grensoverschrijdende project op een administratieve en/of juridische hindernis stuiten.
Overheidsinstanties van grensoverheden hebben de mogelijkheid om informatie te verstrekken over een juridische of administratieve hindernis die zij tegenkomen bij de uitvoering van projecten in een grensgebied. Succesvolle aanvragers zullen worden bijgestaan door deskundigen om de moeilijkheden te overwinnen die de samenwerking met het buurland belemmeren.
b-solutions wordt gefinancierd door het directoraat-generaal Regionaal en stedelijk beleid van de Europese Commissie (DG REGIO). De Vereniging van Europese Grensregio's (AEBR) beheert het programma in het kader van de maatregelen die worden voorgesteld in de mededeling "Bevordering van groei en cohesie in de grensregio's van de EU".

- Free access to #AudioVisualContents to promote multilingualism
Tools such as the "geoblocking" pose a threat to the enhancement of multilingualism in EU border regions. The free access to audio-visual contents in the language of the neighbouring country, indeed, is still too often denied along EU borders.
This is exactly the situation of the German-speaking Community of Belgium as illustrated by the advice case submitted by the Euregio Meuse-Rhine.
In order to find possible solutions to the impossibility of local citizens of acessing contents from Germany, the Euregio was consulted by experts at the Maastricht University. The first tangible results following the resolution strategy proposed are already visible.
Thomas de Vos, our former contact point at the Euregio Meuse-Rhine comments.
