The LEDS Europe and Eurasia Platform (LEDS EEP) exists to provide a network for knowledge sharing, support, interaction and learning to all those throughout the region who are working toward this goal. As part of the LEDS Global Partnership, the LEDS EEP mission is focused on Eastern Europe, including EU member states, countries of the Energy Community and the countries of the Caspian and Black Seas. The unique challenges and opportunities of the area will guide the focus of the platform and its working groups.
