The EEA, with support from PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) Lithuania, evaluated the maturity of environmental information sharing and dissemination in the six Eastern Partnership countries (Armenia, Azerbaijan, Republic of Belarus, Georgia, Republic of Moldova and Ukraine). The evaluation aims to help the countries develop national roadmaps with concrete measures to modernise environmental information systems and raise the profile of environmental information in national open data and e-government processes.

The national round table for the Republic of Moldova took place at the Environment Agency of the Republic of Moldova on 23 May 2019. This round table identified steps to advance the sharing and integration of environmental information by exploring the legal, organisational and technical conditions framing the national e-government and open data initiatives. This event, which is part of ongoing EU-funded technical assistance, follows a regional event in Kyiv, Ukraine on 5-6 March 2019, where representatives from all six Eastern Partnership countries reviewed the findings of the evaluation on the maturity of open data for the environment.
