"ENACTED associates research, teaching, debate and dissemination activities in the area of European Studies, in the framework of a network of 12 partners (8 universities and 4 NGOs) from 6 countries: 3 EU member states (Romania, Hungary and Poland), and 3 eastern neighbouring countries (Moldova, Ukraine, Belarus), having as main topic EU actorness and its role in the eastern borderlands.Eastern borderlands are defined here as the territories alongside the EU’s eastern borders which comprise areas of land under the jurisdiction of both the EU and EaP states. Borderlands are usually vulnerable and heterogeneous territories, since within a very condensed geographic areal the border effect could create visible economic, political and social asymmetries between countries part of the European project and countries outside the EU. In the eastern neighbourhood of the EU, borderlands have received increased attention in the past years, particularly since the commencement of the Ukrainian crisis and the subsequent geopolitical competition between the Euro-Atlantic community and Russia affected the broader eastern neighbourhood area. Thus, in line with the ENP review from November 2015 which emphasised the urgent need for reconsideration of the EU’s neighbourhood and external instruments, borderland regions have become salient for increasing the cooperation between Eastern European EU and non-EU members.In order to boost the EU’s value-based logic in the region, the project seeks to promote the concept of an ""open academic network” in the eastern borderlands by integrating academic partners from countries located on both sides of the EU’s eastern borders: 1. universities which produce and foster knowledge about the EU; 2. NGOs that are closely interested in EU-related matters and which are able in partnership with the universities to generate synergies between the academia and the civil society for disseminating knowledge in the area of European Studies."
