Contribution to the EU Budget Consultation

As the European Union begins shaping its next Multiannual Financial Framework (2028-2034) — the EU’s long-term budget and strategic spending plan — Impact Europe has responded to the European Commission’s public consultation to ensure that the voices of impact investors and social innovators are heard.

This upcoming cycle presents a critical opportunity to align EU funding with the Union’s ambitions for a competitive and innovative economy, a just green and digital transition, greater social inclusion, and long-term resilience.

Our contribution reflects the collective insights of the impact ecosystem and outlines key recommendations to make EU funding more accessible, catalytic, and impact-driven. We invite you to read our full response to explore how future EU budget can better harness impact investing to help achieve the Union’s policy goals.
