European Structural and Investment Funds: publicity toolkit

Publicity toolkit to help lead partners meet the European Commission regulations and promote projects.

This document is part of a collection


The European Structural Funds Publicity Toolkit is designed to help lead partners meet European Commission regulations and to support social media use to promote the work of the funds.

Logos and webpages

Remember you must display the relevant ESIF logo at the top right hand corner of the homepage or any page referring to ESIF operations. The logo must be given equal prominence to any other logos on that page.

You can find further guidance, including on use of the logos on other promotional materials as well as use of posters and plaques, on the EC regulations and publicity requirements.

Quickly source ESIF forms and guidance. The search box on our webpages can be used.

Social media

Useful advice on using social media is available on the SG website. Although guidance is SG focussed the basic principles - being transparent, professional, credible etc - remain the same.

Use as many platforms as you can to promote the work you're doing. SG uses numerous platforms to reach as many people as possible.
