BSEC is the oldest (established in 1992) and most representative regional organization promoting economic cooperation in the wider Black Sea area. Aiming at fostering interaction and harmony among its members, encouraging friendly and good-neighborly relations in the Black Sea region, today BSEC serves as a trusted vehicle for cooperation in a wide range of areas (culture, tourism, science and technology, education, environmental protection, agriculture, energy, SMEs, transport and etc.) for its 13 Member States and beyond.
