What is PERCEIVE about?
PERCEIVE is an acronym that stands for “Perception and evaluation of Regional and Cohesion Policies by Europeans and Identification with the values of Europe”.
PERCEIVE is a three years research project part of EU programme Horizon 2020. The project investigated the impact of Cohesion Policy in creating a shared sense of European identity and a wider adherence to the values of Europe among citizens.
An awesome timeline
PERCEIVE has develop along three years and investigated different research areas. PERCEIVE relies on a multidisciplinary portfolio of competences bridging socio-political, regional-economic and public-administrative backgrounds. It integrated the use of both qualitative and quantitative analytical methods such as surveys, focus groups, case studies and econometric modelling.
