SOUTH – ADRIATIC CONNECTIVITY GOVERNANCE (SAGOV)

SOUTH – ADRIATIC CONNECTIVITY GOVERNANCE (SAGOV) aims to promote connectivity networks in the South Adriatic Area (SA), with a focus on transport infrastructure. The project will provide an example of integrated governance regarding the policy-making on strategic projects such as connectivity in the SA.

Montenegro and Albania are already invested in infrastructure connectivity through transport corridors under the Berlin Process, however there is a need for more strategic planning and coordination between multi-actors of the three countries on projects concerning the transport in SA. SAGOV will specifically focus on increasing the efficiency of existing Connectivity coordination mechanisms-at policy and project level- and pioneering new ones.

Project Outputs:

• a comprehensive South Adriatic Connectivity Initiatives Map;
• a pilot on Transport connectivity and tool-box;
• new approach in connectivity based on higher stakeholder interaction and coordination
• critical mass of transferable connectivity know-how and skills

SAGOV project partners are:

• Cooperation and Development Institute (Lead Partner)
• Albanian Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure
• Montenegrin Ministry of Transport and Maritime Affairs
• Region of Puglia
• European Movement in Montenegro
• Project associated partners are:
• Albanian Ministry of Finance and Economy
