In 2000 the Association of German Chambers of Industry and Commerce DIHК and the Association of Balkan Chambers existing since 1994 and in which the national chamber organizations from 10 countries from South-East Europe are members, have proposed a joint initiative for long-term partnership. The financial support for the realization of this partnership project is provided by the government of the Federal Republic of Germany through the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ). The project is running for already more than 6 years. In the beginning it was planned to have only a phase of 3 years, finishing at the end of 2003. Due to the success of its work and the requests of the project partners, it was prolonged for a 2nd phase of another 3 years till the end of 2006, and with another 3 years till the end of 2009. The Project provides the opportunity the European know-how, esp. the German know-how to be easily accepted and adopted to the conditions of the Balkan chambers. Though it has 10 partners on different stages of development, structure and characteristics, the Project succeeds in finding the right attitude to satisfy the needs of each and every
partner.
