Institute of World Policy has launched the project aimed at giving Ukrainians a better understanding of the advantages of the European integration.Within the project the IWP will hold a series of public discussions in Kyiv, Odessa, Dnipropetrovsk and Donetsk. Regional experts, representatives of the local government and leaders of civil society will have a possibility to talk with leading experts from Kyiv and Ambassadors of the EU member states about obstacles of European integration; for instance, anti-corruption policy, judicial reform, police reform and others.
The project started with the discussion “Window of Opportunity: What does the EU Expect from Ukraine and Ukraine from the EU?”, held on the 12th of March in Kyiv.
During the discussion the IWP presented an analytical report “A Call for the EU — Time to Step in. Ukraine’s Expectations from the European Union”. The full text of the paper in Ukrainian and English is here.

Similar meetings will take place in Dnipropetrovsk (18th of March), Odessa (3rd of April), and Donetsk (16th of April). And in May on the eve of presidential election the IWP will hold a final meeting in Kyiv.
The discussion was organized in the framework of IWP’s project “New European Policy” with the support of UNITER project “Ukraine National Initiatives to Enhance Reforms” funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and Pact. The partners of the IWP are Centre for Political and Legal Reforms, Transparency International in Ukraine and Anticorruption Action Centre.
