    More clarity on all keep.eu processes (updated)

    Interact has recently expanded the FAQs in keep.eu to provide clearer explanations of how data is collected, processed, and updated across the platform.

    This update responds to a growing interest from keep.eu users in understanding not only what data is available, but also how it is produced and maintained. It reflects both keep.eu’s commitment to transparency and its role as a structured, evolving source of Interreg information.

    The FAQs now cover key processes from a high level down to details, including how programmes update their data and how regular data review cycles are carried out. For example, users can learn how information such as estimates used to keep.eu’s representativeness are periodically reviewed and updated.

    For users, this provides greater clarity and confidence in interpreting the data available in keep.eu.

    To explore these processes in more detail, users are invited to consult the FAQs.

    Programmes can now directly update call information

    Interact has just made it possible for Interreg programmes to manage their own information on open and upcoming calls for projects.

    This update reflects an internal decision aligned with keep.eu’s mission to act as a reliable and continuously evolving source of Interreg data, while giving programmes greater autonomy over what is published. In practice, this means that the information users see when filtering programmes with calls can be based on what programmes themselves provide and maintain.

    For keep.eu users, this reinforces transparency and traceability. What is visible reflects the latest data entered at source. Programmes are therefore encouraged to review the calls information currently available in keep.eu and update it where needed. As before, they are encouraged to ask for help from the keeu.eu team, through the email address keep.support@interact.eu.

    For further details on how calls information is displayed and reused, users can consult keep.eu’s FAQ page.

    Have you noticed that keep.eu is much faster?

    A key function of a knowledge management tool such as keep.eu is to enable its users to work with the data it contains as easily as possible.

    For this reason, all data in keep.eu’s database that is not subject to privacy limitations can be exported to Excel or CSV. This includes data on programmes, projects, partners, and the tens of thousands of project documents featured in keep.eu.

    Given the size of these datasets, export times had gradually become very long. This has now been corrected. Data exports are significantly faster. They may never be as fast as we would ideally like, but if you are a frequent keep.eu user, you will appreciate how much quicker downloads are now.

    Statistics in keep.eu back online

    At Interact, we know that many keep.eu users go straight to the Statistics section. It is a valued part of keep.eu, where users can explore figures such as Interreg investments in their region per capita and per area, or see which countries cooperate most with each other, among many other insights.

    We are therefore pleased to announce that, after being offline for a few months due to technical difficulties, the Statistics section is now back online at https://keep.eu/statistics. Thank you to all users for your patience, and our apologies for any inconvenience caused while this section was unavailable.

    As always, do not forget to check the Representativeness section of keep.eu at https://keep.eu/representativeness/. It offers a selection of figures and is the only source of regularly updated estimates on the number of projects and partners in Interreg.

    Virtually 100% of 2014-2020 projects in keep.eu

    Last week marked an exceptional breakthrough: More than 99% of all Interreg projects from the 2014-2020 are now in the keep.eu database which means a virtual (rightly rounded up) 100% representativeness rate. To all the programmes who have contributed their data, this victory belongs to you. Congratulations on your role in achieving this remarkable milestone!

    Keep.eu API just launched

    Now you can seamlessly embed keep.eu data into your digital platform. The new keep.eu API allows stakeholders to access keep.eu’s extensive datasets directly, making it easy to incorporate into their own online tools up-to-date information about Interreg and IPA-IPA cross-border projects, partners, and programmes. This integration can support features like interactive maps, data visualisations, and statistics that reflect the latest information from keep.eu, thus helping Interact stakeholders enhance their platforms with detailed and current content relevant to their audiences.

    Project ACROSS

    The European Commission launched the new data hub for European Union border regions last month. This powerful tool provides standardised geo-located data on cross-border interactions alongside robust socio-economic indicators. Known as project ACROSS, the platform is accessible through a user-friendly interface featuring interactive data visualisation available here.

    Project ACROSS further underscores the importance for Interreg programmes to include their project and partner data in keep.eu. As one of the few platforms linked to the ACROSS website, keep.eu plays an important role in amplifying the visibility and utility of cross-border initiatives.
