GREENING ECONOMIES IN THE EUROPEAN UNION’S EASTERN PARTNERSHIP COUNTRIES

The “Greening Economies in the Eastern Neighbourhood” (EaP GREEN) programme is a means for EaP countries to progress faster on their path to green economy. The EaP GREEN programme aims at assisting countries in the development and implementation of SPP policies. It increases awareness and builds the capacity of policy makers and procurement managers in the EaP region (and namely the Republic of Moldova, Belarus and Ukraine). EaP GREEN targets six Eastern neighbours of the European Union: Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Moldova, and Ukraine, with support provided by the European Commission and four international organisations – OECD, UNECE, UNEP and UNIDO. Additional support is provided by other countries, including Austria, Norway, Switzerland, and the Netherlands.
