South East European Ministerial Round Table on Science, Technology and Innovation

Previous editions (Paris 2001; Ljubljana 2006; Budva 2008; Tirana 2010) have proven to be a crucial added value of what UNESCO can bring to the Region in this field. UNESCO aims to act as a broker and policy platform, bringing together the main key figures in policy-making in S&T at international, European and sub-regional level. The outcomes (final communiqués, publications, policy analysis, declarations, recommendations, etc.) constitute comprehensive revisions showing priorities and roadmaps to be followed in SEE countries and at regional levels.<br /><br/>Prior to the official Ministerial Round Table, a day expert meeting dealing with issues of strengthening of STI system capacity in SEE, in particular with regard to the quality of the new innovative approaches of science and research will be convened. International experts, representatives of the EU, scientific community from SEE countries will be invited.<br />
