This evaluation was undertaken by the Azerbaijan National Committee for European Integration (ANCEI), an initiative of the Open Society Institute Assistance Foundation-Azerbaijan. ANCEI, a group of civil society leaders, highlighted a number of shortcomings in Azerbaijan’s implementation of the democracy and human rights agenda of the European Neighborhood Policy Action Plan.
In September 2007, ANCEI released its first ENP Progress Report and Assessment to introduce within the country and to the European Commission ENP policy conference in Brussels.
This report analyzes the events that happened in the 14 months from the signing of the Azerbaijan Action Plan (AAP) on the European Neighborhood Policy (ENP) to the end of 2007, and reflects the assessment of progress on Azerbaijan's integration into Europe.
The report assesses the work carried out in connection with the special measures planned in the priority spheres of the AAP on the ENP.
The committee's assessment activity regarding the AAP is continuing, and the progress assessment document will be updated in 2008.
