Nadija Afanasieva took part in the preparatory event within the framework of the Together.Stronger programme

On April 14, about 70 civil society representatives from all 14 countries of the Danube Region took part in a preparatory event within the framework of the Together.Stronger programme. Nadija Afanasieva, the director of Ukrainian Institute for International Politics joined the discussions.

 

The aim of the programme is to prepare a proposal for an EU macro-regional civil strategy by bringing together civil society actors from the four macro-regions.

 

This idea received broad support with arguments that:

such a new arrangement can significantly contribute to the attainment of macro-regional objectives;

the partnership and participatory principle should be strictly applied;

it significantly increases the ownership feeling of citizens and increases trust;

the open and creative involvement of young people is a must.
