GROMADA aims to develop cooperation between European universities to support public and legal capacity for environmental recovery in Ukraine. As the war has brought a huge toll to Ukraine’s environment, the project fosters civic engagement in environmental citizen science in light of its legal dimension.

101132692 — GEO-POWER-EU — HORIZON-CL2-2023-DEMOCRACY-01 - Empowering the Geopolitical EU in the Eastern Neighbourhood and the Western Balkans

2024-07-20T08:41:34+03:00

Project acronym: GEO-POWER-EU

Project duration: 1 June 2024 – 31 May 2027

Project сoordinator from ONU: email: brusylovska@onu.edu.ua

Project goals and specific tasks: Starting in and continuing for three years, a consortium of 14 partner institutions has embarked on the “GEO-POWER-EU: Empowering the Geopolitical EU in the Eastern Neighbourhood and the Western Balkans” project, funded by the European Union’s H2020 Research and Innovation programme.

In the wake of the war in Ukraine, the European Union has moved to enhance its geopolitical influence beyond its immediate borders, particularly in the Western Balkans (WB) and Eastern Partnership (EaP) countries. This shift underscores an urgent need to bolster the EU’s strategic thinking and actions. Consequently, GEO-POWER-EU is based on the premise that the EU’s enlargement and Eastern neighbourhood policies require revision to reflect a new geopolitical vision for these regions.
