EU has implemented 70 civil society projects in Azerbaijan since 2007
The European Union has implemented 70 civil society projects worth 90 million euros in Azerbaijan since 2007, said Malena Mard, head of the EU Delegation to Azerbaijan.
She made the remarks at the conference titled “Conformity of Azerbaijan's legislation and practice on NGOs to European standards”, which was held in Baku April 18.
Mard noted that civil society enables people to participate in the formation of politics at a lower level.
“We support the development of civil society. We are implementing similar projects in various countries within the framework of the Eastern Partnership program. We will continue this cooperation,” she added.
Mard expressed gratitude to the Azerbaijani government for the support offered to the implementation of the EU-funded civil society projects.
