Resumo(s)
The use of territorial impact assessment procedures is gaining increasing relevance in the European Union policyevaluation processes. However, no concrete territorial impact assessment tools have been applied to evaluatingEU cross-border programmes. In this light, this article provides a pioneering analysis on how to make use of ter-ritorial impact assessment procedures on cross-border programmes. More specifically, it assesses the main terri-torial impactsoftheInnerScandinavian INTERREG-A sub-programme, inthe last 20years (1996–2016). It focuseson its impacts on reducing the barrier effect, in all its main dimensions, posed by the presence of the administra-tive border. The results indicate a quite positive impact of the analysed cross-border cooperation programme, inreducing the barrier effect in all its main dimensions. The obtained potential impact values for each analysed di-mension indicate, however, that the‘economy-technology’dimension was particularly favoured, following itsstrategic intervention focus in stimulating the economic activity and the attractiveness of the border area.
