Next steps
On 10 November 2020, a political agreement was reached between the European Parliament, EU Member States in the Council as well as the Commission on the next long-term EU budget and NextGenerationEU. As a next step, the legal adoption of the Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF) Regulation, the NextGenerationEU regulation along with the amendment of the Own Resources Decision is now urgently needed.
Once adopted, the EU's long-term budget, coupled with the NextGenerationEU initiative, which is a temporary instrument designed to drive the recovery of Europe, will be the largest stimulus package ever financed through the EU budget. A total of €1.8 trillion will help rebuild a post-coronavirus Europe. It will be a greener, more digital and more resilient Europe.

Going beyond GDP to reflect better societal development, the 2020 EU-SPI reveals that social disparities still vary greatly across EU regions. Nordic countries perform quite well while southeast countries lag behind.
Most EU regions perform well in basic human needs, such as nutrition and basic medical care, water and sanitation, shelter and personal security.
Results vary when it comes to more intermediate indicators of social development, such as access to basic knowledge, access to information and communication, health and wellness and environmental quality.
Results vary when it comes to more intermediate indicators of social development, such as access to basic knowledge, access to information and communication, health and wellness and environmental quality.
The highest differences are related with the opportunity indicators, meaning personal rights, personal freedom and choice, tolerance and inclusion, access to advanced education and lifelong learning.

Commission publishes a toolkit on sustainability transitions for cohesion policy
The European Green Deal is the EU’s strategy to make its economy and society fit for a healthy planet. It is a policy agenda that seeks to accelerate the transition to a circular economy and ensure climate-neutrality by 2050 and advocates systemic changes to achieve this. High-level reports, such as the 2020 State and Outlook of the Environment, highlight the importance of sustainability transitions, deep transformations in societal systems needed to reach the long-term environmental and climate goals.
The European Commission’s Directorate General for Regional and Urban Policy has published a toolkit to help national and regional authorities to help support necessary systemic changes through cohesion policy. It contains good practice principles to promote sustainability transitions in the planning and delivery of Partnership Agreements and Programmes for the 2021-2027 funding period. This will help Member States and regions deliver the increased ambition of the European Green Deal within cohesion policy.
The toolkit is accompanied by a report with additional case studies, inspiring examples and more detailed information. Translations of the toolkit will be made available shortly.
These documents are part of the support provided to Member States and regions to deliver the objectives of the European Green Deal, including a just transition, through cohesion policy. The Commission's proposals for a long-term budget including Next Generation EU offer ample investment opportunities for the transition to a climate-neutral and circular economy, leaving no region behind.
