The current study is part of the project Transparency, accountability and civic participation in the Black Sea Region- a plea for open Parliaments in Romania, Bulgaria, Moldova and Georgia, implemented by the Institute for Public Policy (IPP) Romania in partnership with the Centre for Liberal Strategies (CLS) – Bulgaria, the Institute for Development and Social Initiatives (IDIS Viitorul) – Republic of Moldova and Caucasus Institute for Peace, Democracy and Development (CIPDD) – Georgia. The project was supported by the Black Sea Trust for Regional Cooperation (BST).
Started as an innovative approach challenging the “traditional” topics addressed when analyzing the political environment of the Black Sea Region (always associated with debates upon security dynamics, geo-strategy etc.), the project proved not only that debates and further advocacy efforts for making the national Parliaments in countries in this region are important and up-to-date, but that it is a fundamental prerequisite for non-governmental actors to continue working together to turn the fragile democracies in the region into viable ones.
