The current project is a follow-up to the two projects developed under the Danube Transnational Program under the first and second CfP. It aims at providing further support to PACs of EUSDR PA 11 in better performing their management activities related to the Strategy Implementation: day-to-day coordination between PACs, Steering Group members and stakeholders; preparation of Steering Group meetings, involvement in the work of EUSDR Presidency and the Danube Strategy Point, participation of the EUSDR Annual Fora, etc., involvement with the EU Commission etc. The project will also contribute to policy development by organizing specific events linked to the implementation of the PA 11 Targets and Actions and the EUSDR Action Plan that was adopted in April 2020. A focus will also be places on horizontal cooperation with priority areas with which PA 11 has established common initiatives like PA 1a Water land Mobility. Contacts with Interact and other Macro-regional strategies could be established within the project duration if this could be beneficial for Priority Area 11. Whenever possible, involvement of non-EU- members states and young people in the implementation of the project should be encouraged. Ensuing publicity and better communication are to be considers as horizontal tasks throughout the project duration. Out of the 5 pre-defined specific project objectives, our project focuses on SPO 1, 3 and 4. Therefore the overall aim of the project is to work together to tackle security and organized crime within the Danube region. In the light of the above, the international cooperation between all stakeholders is a core part within the project. By achieving this solid framework cooperation and regular mechanisms for information exchange the project will influence positively the security environment of the EUSDR States.
