An essential tool that increases the effectiveness and wider dissemination of the results of the Center for e-Governance Program @SEE is the participation of INA Academy in South-Eastern European (SEE) Regional Initiatives and Meetings, aimed at boosting the growth of the Information Society in the region.

INA Academy combined Regional meetings with working meetings for the Program to eliminate duplication of expenses and efforts. These meetings were attended by the representatives of INA Academy's partners in the Center for e-Governance Program @SEE , but also by numerous representatives of Regional Governments and International institutions working towards the same objectives. Indeed, in this manner INA Academy managed to reach a greater audience and attract significant attention to the activities of the Program. INA Academy took the opportunity to promote the objectives of the Program, to discuss and adjust its scheduled activities and to make its outputs known to partners and governments across the EE region.

In this context, the following meetings were conducted:

• 14 May 2008, Ljubljana, Slovenia
