Abstract

The Western Balkans Agenda on Innovation, Research, Education, Culture, Youth and Sport is a long-term strategy from the EU and the Western Balkans (WB) for cooperation with the region. The implementation was monitored by the project POLICY ANSWERS during the project's lifetime (2022-2026). The Monitoring Cards visualise the results from monitoring the implementation of the Western Balkans Agenda in six categories: Research & Innovation; Education & Skills; Culture, Youth & Sports; Environment; Digital; and Common Regional Market. Four monitoring rounds were carried out: in autumn/winter 2022/2023 (1st round), winter 2023/2024 (2nd round), winter 2024/2025 (3rd round) and winter 2025/2026 (4th round).
