This year, the General Assembly of the Eastern Partnership Civil Society Forum will be taking place in Batumi, Georgia on the 20-21 November 2014 under the title "EU Integration and Common Security: Making it Happen".
The high-level panel will focus on the future of the Eastern Partnership and will include high-level officials from the European Commission and government representatives of Georgia and Ukraine.
During the event, civil society and government representatives will have the possibility of presenting their views on the Eastern Partnership and developments in the EaP region. The participants will also comment on the involvement of the Forum in regional developments.
The Forum provides a platform for debate on the achievements of the EaP and how civil society can further contribute to the success of the programme. The annual Assembly provides guidance to the EaP CSF for the upcoming year and gives an opportunity for participants to exchange opinions and expertise between themselves. The annual Forum is the highest decision-making body of the Forum at which all 19 members of the Steering Committee are elected for a one-year-term. The annual Forum approves the by-laws, conflict-of-interest-rules and statues of the Forum.
Between annual Forum events, the delegates of the previous Forum form the highest decision-making body and can make decisions by majority vote through email voting.
Out of 563 submitted application, 225 organisations were selected to take part in the Forum with representatives from six Eastern Partnership and EU countries. 48 organisations will be participating as observers and each participating organisation will be sending one delegate.
