Between 1st November and 8th December 2011 Mr Roland Gustbée, Vice-President of Euroregion Baltic visited all ERB member organisations to discuss future joint activities and areas of cooperation that could potentially bring the most added value to the ERB member regions and be included in the preparation of the ERB Action Plan 2012-2013.
During the visits ERB Vice-President held a series of meetings with high-ranking political representatives and civil servants of ERB member organisations who presented the most important needs and expectations of their regions towards ERB cooperation. The proposals included such issues as lobbying activities towards the future Programming Period 2014-2020, continuous support for a joint project of ERB Youth Board and possible implementation of cross-border business-to-business project.
The visits were a direct result of Mr Gustbée’s initiative presented during the Second Annual Forum of ERB Stakeholders in September 2011 to facilitate the preparation of the next ERB Action Plan 2012-2013.
