The Estonia-Russia Cross Border Cooperation Programme 2014-2020 aims to foster cross-border cooperation between the Republic of Estonia and the Russian Federation to promote socio-economic development.
The Programme will complement overall European Union – Russia relations focusing on the eligible border regions on both sides of the border.
Two Cross Border Cooperation Programmes Estonia-Russia and Latvia-Russia together celebrated European Cooperation Day (EC Day) in Pskov (Russia) on 7th September. 400 participants took part in interactive tasks on environmental protection, got to know about expected project results, tasted cross border cheeseburgers.
Since 2012, EU member states, partner countries and Russia have been celebrating European Cooperation Day. It has become a good tradition in the North-West of Russia to carry out thematic events aimed at familiarizing population of the region with the achievements and opportunities provided by cross-border and interregional cooperation.
