Welcome to the
EU-WB Policy Dialogue Stakeholder Platform !
We are delighted to announce the launch of this Platform aimed at stimulating a policy dialogue on how to align priorities in the Western Balkans with those of the European Union across three key thematic areas: Digital Transformation, Green Deal, and Healthy Societies. Serving as a dynamic community hub, the platform will focus on policy making, stakeholder engagement, and policy implementation tools. Our primary objective is to facilitate interactive exchanges among different actors, providing a ‘space’ where challenges can be addressed and optimal solutions can be offered. Moreover, the platform will showcase best practices from within and outside the Western Balkans. The platform is dedicated to generate widespread interest and active engagement from various stakeholders, with the goal of driving tangible value and fostering positive change in the region’s development while aligning with EU priorities.
To kickstart this platform, we are organizing a special POLICY ANSWERS Conference titled 'Policy Dialogue on Aligning Priorities in the Western Balkans – Vision 2030 – Digital/Green/Health Pathways.' This highly anticipated event will take place on 13 September 2023, in the vibrant city of Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina. The conference will bring together government representatives from the Western Balkans, key stakeholders, representatives from the European Commission, and external experts for a meaningful dialogue on aligning priorities in the region. Attendees can expect a dynamic and interactive gathering that will set the stage for productive collaborations and the development of concrete pathways towards a sustainable future. Save the date and mark your calendars to join us in Sarajevo for this milestone conference!
The key takeaways and recommendation derived from the Sarajevo Conference will serve as crucial building blocks for the Regional Platform’s approach to address challenges encountered within each thematic area - Digital Transformation, Green Deal, and Healthy Societies. This platform will be tailored to the specific needs and preferences of the participants, ensuring their active and meaningful engagement
