13 and 14 July 2023, The Joint Secretariat - Suceava Regional Office for Cross-border Co-operation and the Managing Authority - MDLPA Interreg NEXT Romania-Ukraine, together with TESIM experts (
Technical Support for the Implementation and Management of ENI CBC Programmes contracted by the European Commission)
organised 3 partnership sessions, in order to facilitate cooperation in the projects to be funded under the programme.
TESIM experts ensured networking between participants, both at the thematic level on the priority of interest and at the level of project ideas. A virtual “wall” with the project ideas submitted by the participants was exhibited during the events, including access to virtual discussion rooms. There were also presentations to facilitate the identification of partners and the building of cross-border partnerships, including examples of good practice.
The event was attended by public authorities, educational, cultural, research, environmental and health institutions, NGOs and other relevant organisations from both Romania and Ukraine interested in initiating a cross-border partnership.
The sessions were organised in online format as follows:
13 July 2023, between 10.00 - 12.15, Priority 2- Cross-border social development, 13 July 2023, from 14.00 - 16.15, Priority 1 - Cross-border focus on environment and 14 July 2023, from 10.00 - 12.00, Priority 3 - Border Cooperation.
Alongside these events, another useful tool for identifying partners for transnational projects is the dedicated section on the programme website,
