Digital Agenda for the Balkans | Digitalisation
The Digital Agenda for the Western Balkans aims to support the transition of the region into a digital economy and bring the benefits of digital transformation, such as faster economic growth, more jobs, and better services.
In 2018, the Commission together with Ministers from six Western Balkan partners - Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kosovo*, Montenegro, North Macedonia and Serbia – committed to:
- Investing in broadband connectivity
- Increasing cybersecurity, trust and digitalisation of industry
- Strengthening the digital economy and society
- Boosting research and innovation
Digitalisation is a key priority for regional progress and the POLICY ANSWERS project also aims to put it into focus, aligning priorities between the regional stakeholders and the EU.
