WP 2 - INTRASEA Strategy for fulfilling Vision 2020+
 

Within WP 2 "Regional Intersectorial Strategies" the work to produce a strategy to fulfil the INTRASEA Vision 2020 + is now finalized.

The intention with the strategy is to suggest the way forward to achieve the goals set out by the INTRASEA VISION 2020+ . Networking, infrastructure, inter-modality, modal shift and human resources are key words. As cross border and trans-national activities are necessary, the strategy takes into account EU policies and directives as also national policies. The strategy can make up the basis for continuing efforts targeting the goals of INTRASEA VISION 2020+.
