Transfrontier co-operation has grown significantly in Europe in the last 30 years. This phenomenon is likely to intensify in view of the increasing interest in such co-operation as a means of overcoming "border effects" in a European integration perspective, jointly managing shared problems and improving the quality of life of the inhabitants of cross-border territories. The development of transfrontier co-operation goes hand in hand with a strengthening of the decentralisation process, reflecting the principle of subsidiarity, and is impossible without a public-private partnership between all politicians, socio-economic players and civil society.
