Significance of the cooperation: Stronger integration of the Slovak-Hungarian border area and the intensification of cross-border interactions (mobility) necessitate systematic monitoring, analysis and elimination of legal and administrative obstacles. This process is unimaginable without coordinated cooperation of the actors from both sides of the border.
Introduction of the partnership: The project is implemented by the Budapest-based Central European Service for Cross-border Initiatives (CESCI) and the Košice-based Central European Services for Cross-border Initiatives – Carpathia (CESCI-Carpathia). Both organisations have been committed to supporting cross-border cooperation and eliminating cross-border legal obstacles for many years.
Introduction: Central European Service for Cross-Border Initiatives (CESCI) is a private law public benefit organisation, which was established in 2009 with the aim of facilitating cross-border cooperation along the borders of Hungary and across Central and South-Eastern Europe. CESCI mainly advocates cross-border cooperation through conducting research in border studies and in specific border regions; designing and evaluating territorial integrated strategies and cross-border programmes; preparing policy materials both on national and EU levels and participating in the relevant consultations and policy debates; supporting the development of projects and institutions in border regions; and contributing to the improvement of local stakeholders’ capacities through knowledge sharing activities.
Summary of the project part: As the lead beneficiary, CESCI coordinates the implementation of the project. Most of the professional tasks identified for the sake of legal accessibility are to be carried out in cooperation between CESCI and CESCI Carpathia. In addition, CESCI is responsible for the following activities: development of an information platform; production of 5 short movies; elaboration of a project report and methodological guide; organisation of an international professional event and a closing conference.
