The Summary
“Mapping the Green Policies of Ukraine, Moldova and Armenia in the Context of EU Accession”
The talk will focus on work carried out in Ukraine, Moldova, and Armenia under the Green Agenda project, funded by the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency. The project aims to accelerate the green transition by strategically aligning with the ambitious EU Green Deal (EGD) and supporting smooth EU integration. To support this goal, comprehensive national green transition assessments were conducted in the three countries, alongside an analysis of public perceptions. The presentation will provide an overview of the initial findings from these assessments.
