Dear Marina Gutgarts ,
Christmas decorations are all around Brussels and markets are full of guests. Shortly before our winter holidays break, we have prepared for you a recap of our 11th Annual Assembly, which took place in Brussels earlier this month. Watch our event videos of Day 1 and Day 2, check out the audio-visual file of the Commissioner’s speech and the panel on the future of the Eastern Partnership, browse through the event gallery, and learn more about our recommendations for the future of the EaP. We hope you enjoy our extensive post-production of our yearly high-level event.
In December we have signed the financial partnership agreement with the European Commission for the duration of 4 years. Though the agreement does not stipulate any financial resources at this stage, it indicates the importance given to the work and expertise of the EaP CSF by the EC. The EaP CSF has been chosen to become the EC's strategic partner in strengthening the role of CSOs as governance actors, enhancing cooperation and coordination of CSO capacity building actions and initiatives and increasing the impact of capacity development actions across the EaP.
With this, we finish our Newsletter in 2019. The Secretariat of the EaP CSF is wishing you joyful celebrations and a good start into the New Year 2020.
Yours,
EaP CSF Secretariat
