Abstract

The ITI mechanism was created by the EU authorities in the context of the need for a radical change as regards the cohesion policy approach and the emphasis on the integrated development. The article provides an overview of ITI implementation in European Union countries as well as in Romania. The specific case of the Danube Delta area is used to provide a detailed example regarding ITI implementation at local level. The research methodology consists of reviewing the literature in the field. In this regard scientific journals, websites and annual reports have been examined. The findings have shown that ITI represented an attempt to develop urban and rural areas as well as to improve the cooperation between local entities involved in the process.
