The Technical Support Instrument is the European Commission’s key tool for supporting Member States in designing and implementing growth-enhancing and inclusive reforms. From healthcare, to sound public finances, from the digitalisation of education and public services, to strengthening the business environment and the financial sector, the Technical Support Instrument supports EU Member States with their reform agenda.
We provide support to reforms in a wide range of policy areas, such as climate action, digital transition and health.
Strong institutions and high quality public administrations in Member States are crucial for delivering on EU objectives.
We have implemented over 1500 reform support projects in all 27 Member States.

ComPAct High-level conference: “A growth enhancing public administrative space”
In late 2023, the European Commission presented its Communication on public administration, entitled “Strengthening the European Administrative Space (ComPAct). The ComPAct reflects that public administrations and governance underpins everything else. Without efficient and effective public administrations there can be no delivery on EU policies and instruments, and also no trust from citizens.
Project in the spotlight
On a regular basis, the European Commission chooses a project to be its ‘project in the spotlight’. The featured projects, from different policy areas and in different countries, are selected on the basis of effective implementation, promising results on the ground as well as a potential to be replicated across the EU. In this way, the Commission seeks to encourage best practices.
Cyprus settlement support
The Directorate-General for Structural Reform Support of the European Commission coordinates the Commission's efforts to support the process led by the United Nations for the reunification of Cyprus. It is also responsible for the implementation of the EU Aid Programme for the Turkish Cypriot community and for monitoring the Green Line Regulation.
