This site is a compilation of the courses of action implemented in Gipuzkoa by the Gipuzkoa Provincial Council and Town Halls in the province in relation to co-financing by European Union Structural Funds.

Within the current scheduling for the years 2000-2006, Gipuzkoa as part of the Autonomous Community of the Basque Country relates to the Nº 2 Objective and Nº 3 Objetive of the Structural Funds.

The Nº 2 Objective of the Structural Funds is to revitalise areas with structural difficulties in relation to industrial, rural or urban matters, or areas dependent on the fishing sector.

These areas are part of regions whose level of development, although on a par with the Community average, suffer from a number of social and economic difficulties at local level which frequently result in high levels of unemployment.

And Nº 3 Objective is the reference framework for the development of human resources for better and more generalised employment.
