Dialogue as part of cooperation

As part of the implementation of the EDF, the Government of New Caledonia organises every year a Follow Up Committee on the cooperation with the EU. The idea is to bring together the different cooperation players who implement projects or programmes which are funded by the European Union. A presentation of the Annual Implementation Report is carried out by the Government and endorsed by all of the stakeholders (download below).
