Topic areas

The REC’s topic area system provides a flexible framework for putting the knowledge and skills of our international organisation into practice across borders and disciplines. Our aim is to take a proactive approach in serving our regions and the beneficiary and donor communities.

The system exploits the full potential of our network of country offices; our ability to work in local languages; our established contacts with high-level officials and experts; and our role as a neutral platform for the exchange of ideas and experience.

The REC Strategy defines two main directions of work in the 2011-2015 period: governance for sustainability; and green economy.
