European Environmental Information and Observation Network (Eionet)

Description of the programme / policy

The Western Balkans have access to a large pool of experts, helping them with the environmental challenges they face. In return, experts from these countries contribute to the network with their know-how.

Main objective of the programme/policy

Eionet is the European Environment Agency partner network that supports the EEA work programme implementation. Together, the EEA and Eionet implement the EEA-Eionet Strategy for 2021-2030 to give EU policymakers and the public the best available knowledge to reach agreed environmental and sustainability targets.

Specific objective of the programme/policy

National Focal Points (NFPs) are nominated and funded by countries to act as primary links between the EEA and their country. NFPs organise and develop their country’s Eionet network, as well as facilitate and coordinate contacts, requests and information delivery at national and EU levels. NFPs also advise EEA Management Board members.
