In cooperation and peace we believe
Written by the team of the Managing Authority/Joint Secretariat
Thanks to working together beyond borders, a lot of good ideas have been brought to life, by partners from the eight EU Members States, Norway, Russia and Belarus. This work on the ground, with citizens and organisations, is something we value and cherish. It creates friendships for years, mutual support and trust. It is about good neighbourhood for the benefit of all people in the region.
At this very moment, all these values have been threatened by military aggression of the Russian government against Ukraine. Our thoughts and actions are with those who suffer most: with the citizens of Ukraine.
Still, we do hope that peace will return. We will be in a different world. We hope this world has sufficient space for cooperation and trust again. We believe in people.
