In 2021, the European Union introduced the ‘do no significant harm’ principle for EU funds, an environmental safeguard aimed at preventing investments from causing environmental harm.

This report, through a series of case studies, analyses how the ‘do no significant harm’ principle has been applied in various EU Member States, and assesses the extent to which the current application of the principle is delivering on its objective.

This publication is also available in Polish.
