Since its inception in 1996 the SEECP encompasses on the one hand the region’s determination to foster peace, good neighborly relations, economic and social security and on the other hand the perspective and aspirations of SEE countries to join European and Euro-Atlantic structures.
The process of European integration helps the countries from the region to build their own capacity by adopting and implementing EU law, as well as European and international standards.
