The
Regional Environmental Reconstruction Programme (REReP) was the
main environmental component of the former Stability Pact for SEE,
Working Table II.
The official handover of the Stability Pact to
the Regional Co-operation Council (RCC) was in Sofia meeting, February
2008.
REReP was initiated under the Stability Pact for
South Eastern Europe and endorsed by ministries of SEE countries
— including Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia,
Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Montenegro, Romania, Serbia
and Kosovo (under UNSCR 1244) at their meeting in March 2000 in
Skopje.
A Task Force
comprising the ministers of environment for the countries of South
Eastern Europe (SEE), donors, international organisations, institutions
and NGOs, guides its implementation. A Secretariat
based at the head office of the REC in Hungary coordinates the programme.
The countries adopted the programme priorities and translated them
into priority projects. They took the lead in project implementation
and reporting to the REReP Task Force.
The activities of the REReP Task Force and Secretariat
are supported by the EU
CARDS programme.
