The evaluation mission aims to facilitate learning from the experience of the ongoing project in the Western Balkans, focusing on what has worked and what would change in terms of cooperation with project partners. The meeting aimed to analyse existing needs on how the new phase of the project could provide further support to partner institutions in the EU accession process and what could be the content, formats of support and cooperation of the future project.

One of the most important topics of the project in the new phase concerns promotion of gender equality and inclusion of marginalised groups into the broader framework of the EU accession process.
