ESPON is an Interreg Community Initiative in which Malta has been participating since it joined the EU in 2004. ESPON is funded by the European Regional Development Fund 2004-2006 to support policy development and to build a European scientific community in the field of territorial development. The main aim is to increase the general body of knowledge about territorial structures, trends and policy impacts across the EU.
