Science in the Balkans - the road to stability. Strengthening EU cooperation in R&D with the Western Balkan countries

This is a Report on a conference of science and technology in the Western Balkans, Brussels, January 17, 2008.

At a conference in Brussels, on 17 January, the Romanian government led a
discussion among key opinion formers and stakeholders exploring how the EU’s research programmes could be applied to building up the region’s scientific and technological capabilities – and, ultimately, create a climate for faster economic growth and greater political stability.

This publication includes a report of that conference, plus other reports,
including a scene-setting interview with Professor Anton Anton, President of the Romanian National Authority for Scientific Research.
At the end of the document, three briefing articles summarise the state of play in innovation in south-central Europe. They draw heavily on the prime source of innovation information for this region, SEE-ERA.NET, in 2007.
