The European Union and the Council of Europe organised the second local steering committee meeting for the Partnership for Good Governance programme. During the meeting, participants reviewed results obtained over the past year, exchanged ideas on challenges and ways to address them, and discussed priority activities for 2025. This initiative showcases the commitment of the national authorities to continue co-operation work and align domestic reforms with European standards.
The Partnership for Good Governance builds on the achievements of previous phases, providing targeted support to Azerbaijan in addressing challenges and delivering tangible results in key areas of work.
Four country-specific projects are implemented in Azerbaijan, with a total budget of 2.5 million euros, co-funded by the EU and the Council of Europe. These projects build on results of the previous phases of the programme and aim at assisting national authorities to promote mediation in justice, prevent and fight economic crime, promote equality, and prevent and combat violence against women and domestic violence.
Azerbaijan is also involved on regional projects in the field of preventing and fighting economic crime and advancing women’s access to justice. Their purpose is to encourage networking, provide a platform for sharing experiences and good practices, and, where relevant, complement country-specific projects.
