Iasi (Romania), 29 June 2007. FDSC, ProWomen and FOND (Romanian development NGO platform) have organised a seminar on civil society and development co-operation in the context of the European Neighbourhood Policy, in Iasi (Romania) on 27/28 June 2007. This seminar brought together around 20 NGOs from Moldova and 20 NGOs from Romania. While the European Commission keeps on claiming that the programming and implementation of the ENPI will be done in a transparent and participatory manner, it seems that none of the civil society participants to this event have been meaningfully involved in a consultation on the Moldovan Country Strategy Paper or on the Annual Action Programme.
