Expression of Interest For Enhancing Resilience Of Eastern Border in Belgium

Work Detail

Expression of Interest for Enhancing Resilience of Eastern Border: Latgale - Where the European Union Begins. Description: The campaign addresses the Country Communication Strategy priority of strengthening trust that the European Union stands with people in Latvias Eastern Border Region and supports its security, resilience and long-term development. Latgale forms part of the external border of both the EU and NATO and faces heightened geopolitical uncertainty alongside demographic and socioeconomic challenges that affect peoples ability and willingness to live, work, invest and plan their future in the region. Significant EU-supported investment and action are already contributing to security, infrastructure, entrepreneurship, employment, education, healthcare and community development in Latgale. At the same time, attitudes towards the EU in the region are less positive than nationally. In June 2026, 35% of respondents in Latgale considered Latvias EU membership a good thing, compared with 49% nationally, while 46% described it as neither good nor bad. These findings underline the need for communication that is locally relevant, credible and connected to peoples everyday priorities and ambitions. The campaign will address uncertainty about the opportunities available in Latgale and whether they can lead to a secure and sustainable future. It will connect peoples ambitions with practical opportunities and next steps, while demonstrating the EUs role as a reliable long-term partner that helps people, businesses and communities turn ambitions into action. In parallel, it will strengthen recognition across Latvia of Latgale as a capable, culturally distinctive and strategically important part of Latvia and the European Union. This matters because perceptions beyond the region shape the wider environment for tourism, cooperation, investment, relocation and return, and therefore influence Latgales opportunities for long-term development.
