Abstract: Corridor Fora is a young, yet important tool to promote transnational cooperation along TEN-T corridors, worthwhile scrutinizing. They bring together various stakeholders and perspectives. Public authorities and infrastructure providers and operators are the main stakeholder groups in the Corridor Fora. Experience shows that the members use the forum meetings for policy coordination and lobbying, networking and learning, but also as a source of inspiration. However, it is also important to note that some interests are underrepresented in the Fora and synergies between the corridors are not yet fully exploited. Corridor Fora are embedded in a wider system of European transport and cooperation policies. To promote transnational cooperation along the Orient/East-Med Corridor and develop understanding and trust, additional tools such as INTERREG A, INTERREG B, macro-regional strategies and bottom-up initiatives are important complementary activities. In this way, corridor development can be addressed from different perspectives to further build on cooperation traditions.
