The BAA Strategy of the Municipality of Kavala is derived as a derivative of the general development planning of the Municipality, as reflected in its Operational Programme 2015-2019 (EP). There emerged 17 potential development directions for the region which, based on the model of development of the (smart) specialisation strategy, resulted in the following 4 strategic areas of development: (a) in the field of Tourism-Culture, (b) in the Agri-Food sector and its transformation, (c) in the field of Research, Technological Development and Innovation in conjunction with Entrepreneurship (EAC), and (d) in the field of Sustainable City (Municipality) which includes Social Care and Environmental Protection. The central focus of the OP is to improve the attractiveness of the Municipality.
Investment opportunities for the development of the above sectors at the beginning of the current programming period were identified mainly in three main tools, all of which are Integrated Spatial Development (ODS) programmes: 1) Sustainable Urban Development Strategies (SDDAs), 2) integrated spatial investment of the Egnatia Road Cultural Route (Egnatia Road OCT), and 3) local development with Local Communities Initiative (TPTOC/Leader-Includes 2 distinct programmes, a single-money-EPALTH and a multi-departmental-EPALTH & E LOT).
