14 The Stability Pact for South Eastern Europe was an institution aimed at strengthening peace,
democracy, human rights and economy in the countries of SEE in the period 1999 to 2008.
Over the years, the focus of the Stability Pact shifted from confidence building among the
countries and infrastructure reconstruction to a framework for regional cooperation in SEE.
The Stability Pact also took on the role of supporting the integration of SEE countries into
European and Euro-Atlantic structures by helping the countries of the region to meet EU and
NATO membership criteria.
15 Please note that, in the case of projects for which progress was made in funding between
2007 and 2009, the total amount of committed/secured funds was taken into account — that
is, where funds were already committed/secured prior to 2007, these are included. In some
cases, the newly secured funds are conditional.
16 This graph takes into account both large and small improvements and setbacks, and takes into
account all projects that were present on the lists at any point in time from 2007 to 2009.
