Francesca Calvo joined the Joint Secretariat of Interreg Atlantic Area, based in Porto, to support us in promoting cooperation and solidarity across Atlantic regions. The new member of our team is a beneficiary of Interreg Volunteer Youth and she is ready to expand her knowledge of regional development by contributing to projects that address current challenges such as climate change, the blue economy, and sustainable growth.
We asked her for the first impressions and she promptly answered: “I felt welcomed and integrated by the team in the dynamic environment of the Interreg Atlantic Area. I look forward to enhancing my practical experience in EU-funded initiatives and actively contributing to the program's mission of strengthening transnational cooperation in the Atlantic regions. I am excited about the challenges ahead.”
