Abstract
The cross-border cooperation is one of the key EU-integration instruments, which fosters the sustainable development of both sides of the border.
This programme aims to promote sustainable development in the cross-border area, by joint actions and cross-border projects that would have an impact on the social and economic situation of the population, improvement of the joint management and valorisation of human, natural and cultural resources and strengthen the image and the cohesion of the region.
The European Commission also promotes cross-border cooperation and bilateral development in the Western Balkans through the Instrument for Pre-Accession (IPA) financial assistance tool. This instrument is operational since 2008 and currently applies to all countries in Southeast Europe seeking membership in the European Union.
This paper is analyzing the potential benefits as well as the challenges that the West Balkans countries are facing with, while implementing cross-border action projects, with special focus on the impact that the cross-border actions have on the sustainable development in the bordering areas of Republic of Macedonia.
