The Partnership for Good Governance (PGG) is a joint co-operation initiative of the European Union and the Council of Europe for strengthening good governance in the Eastern Partnership region*.

The Partnership for Good Governance provides tailor-made support to beneficiary countries to meet their reform agendas and comply with the European standards in the fields of human rights, rule of law and democracy. This is also a priority for the EU enlargement process, as relevant for the Republic of Moldova and Ukraine's candidate status and Georgia's European perspective.

The Partnership for Good Governance programme will also continue supporting Armenia and Azerbaijan and is also foreseen to support co-operation with Belarusian democratic forces and civil society.
