UGAL

This project aims to resize the academic expertise in the context of the Eastern neighborhood of Romania, especially in the relationship with the Republic of Moldova and Ukraine. Increasing international visibility of regional problems and understanding them at political and strategic level, identifying national long-term positions and interests are sine qua non elements in formulating a coherent national and regional policy discourse.

On the same note, the review of the European Neighborhood Policy (ENP) - and the Eastern Partnership in particular - has been the subject of numerous public consultations bringing together contributions from Member States, EU institutions, international organizations but also civil society, which reconfirms the need to reevaluate the ENP.
