“Cyprus is changing. You’re experiencing it!”

Cyprus is changing every day, through important projects and interventions implemented with the support of the EU, which substantially contribute to improving citizens’ quality of life. Selected projects co-financed through European programmes are becoming visible on city streets and highways through the new nationwide campaign “Cyprus is changing. You’re experiencing it!”

The campaign presents projects that are implemented through four key European funding programmes in Cyprus, with a total budget exceeding €3.3 billion. These programmes support investments with a substantial social, developmental, and environmental impact across the country: the Cohesion Policy Programme “THALIA 2021–2027”, the Maritime, Fisheries and Aquaculture Programme 2021–2027, the Internal Security Funds Programmes, and the Recovery and Resilience Plan “Cyprus Tomorrow.”

Using intercity buses as “moving canvases,” the campaign travels across Cyprus, showcasing striking images of projects that have already left their mark on citizens’ daily lives. From the regeneration of public spaces and modern infrastructure to investments in health, education, research, security, social cohesion, the environment, and sustainable development, these projects clearly reflect the contribution of EU funding to the country’s development. At the same time, they highlight how European support leads to tangible improvements in everyday life – with better cities and neighbourhoods, better transport and research infrastructure, better education and skills, better protection of citizens, better social welfare, a better healthcare system, a better marine and natural environment, and more sustainable development for the future.
