Nathalie Verschelde

• Deputy head of unit, European Commission - DG REGIO
• I have been working in DG REGIO for 18 years.... mostly on territorial cooperation, notably Interreg and macro-regional strategies. I have a passion for cross-border regions and for life in European borderlands. For more than seven years, I worked to increase the visibility of border life, and in particular of the many difficulties that persist despite the Single Market and the process of European integration. At the moment, my professional focus is more on external borders and on enlargement
