2nd Working Meetingon the implementation of the EUSBSR
16-17 February 2011Gdańsk, Poland
Challenges in the implementation of the EUSBSR – a PAC perspective
Political and decision-making levels
Ensure that political decisions be translated to proper engagement of and follow-up by decision-makers in the countries
Involve Russia in the implementation processes (NDPHS a good example)
Ensure stronger support of NCPs in the implementation processes (this will also ensure better consistency in the approach of various institutions on a country level)
Financial issues
Encouraging Russian co-funding for projects in which Russia wants to be engaged
Aligning funding in the next programming period. Engaging PACs in the development of BSR programmes’ priorities
Funding for PCA work and travel; COM support
Health and social well-being ”under-invested” compared to other sectors
Project implementation phase: (i) scarce and fragmented international funding; (ii) very scarce national funding
Project development and application phase: (i) limited international funding; (ii) very scarce national funding
Institutional issues
Ensuring committed and enjoying ample resources leadership in each priority action/flagship project (proper geographical distribution)
Ensuring committed and engaged PAC enjoying ample resources for the overall coordination of the PA work
Holding thematic meetings of PACs and NCPs
Laying down an “institutional infrastructure” for the implementation of the priority actions/flagship projects in all countries (i.e. proper engagement and support of institutions and other stakeholders from each country)
