The hearing on "NRPPs and lessons from the RRF delivery model: long-term EU resilience and social cohesion in the context of demographic challenges" examines the budgetary implications of the proposed NRPPs under the 2028–2034 MFF, drawing on lessons from the RRF delivery model to assess how performance-based financing, conditionalities and flexibilities can support long-term investment predictability and address structural challenges such as demographic change and social cohesion.

Discussions will focus on the proposed National and Regional Partnership Plans (NRPPs), examining the balance between investment predictability and budgetary flexibility. Particular attention will be given to conditionalities, performance-based mechanisms, and their capacity to support long-term structural investments, as well as implications for resilience, demographic change and social cohesion.

The invited speakers are:

- Ms Ivana Maletic, Member of the European Court of Auditors

- Ms Livia Vašáková, Former Deputy Prime Minister of Slovakia responsible for the Recovery and Resilience Plan

- Ms Odilia Van Der Valk, Research Associate at the European Policies Research Centre

- Mr Guntram Wolff, Professor of Economics at Université libre de Bruxelles and Senior Fellow at Bruegel

- Mr Arnstein Aassve, Professor of Demography at Università Bocconi

- Mr Benedict Wauters, Director at Europa WSE.
