The members of the ERB Executive Board meeting met on 29th October 2014 to discuss important matters regarding the cooperation in Euroregion Baltic.

The meeting followed the 5th Annual Forum held a day earlier in Gdańsk and partially followed up on Forum’s organisation and content, with all delegations providing their opinions on the outcome of the event.

Discussing internal matter of ERB cooperation, the Executive Board discussed the outcome of the transfer of the ERB International Permanent Secretariat to Poland. Based on the information provided by the Head of IPS, the Board decided to extend his employment and continue the current cooperation with the Foundation for Supporting and Promotion Entrepreneurship in Warmia-Mazury.

Youth cooperation issues were also discussed by the Executive Board with opinions stressing the need for a more strategic approach towards youth issues in the future. Following the discussion, members of the Executive Board approved the involvement of a new EVS volunteer in the works of the Youth Board.

Finally, the ERB Executive Board participated in a short workshop-based discussion on project facilitation within the ERB. All delegations prepared their proposals for possible project initiatives which were then discussed in context of the upcoming South Baltic CBC Programme. As a result, the Board decided to establish a new Task Force that would facilitate project initiation and development within Euroregion Baltic.
