Description

Description (EN):

Border crossings and crossing the border by travelers are elements affecting the development of cross-border cooperation in every aspect of it. To build lasting cooperation and partnership between communities in border regions, border openness is important, i.e. possibly the greatest ease in crossing it. Providing security in border functioning is also important, so that border crime (smuggling of goods and people, drugs and gun trafficking) does not overshadow the cross-border cooperation and building good neighbourly relations. This is particularly important in this case as the project concerns the eastern border of not only Poland but also the EU / Schengen zone. These challenges are taken in this project. In terms of substantive scope, the development of infrastructure is the border crossing point in Zosin (including the construction of 3 new clearance lanes), which "opens" the border. In addition, modern equipment which will be delivered will effectively help border guards ensure security at the border. The project allows for the exchange of good practice and experience between Polish and Ukrainian border guards. A characteristic feature of the project, emphasizing its essence for building strong cross-border connections, important not only for border communities but for all citizens of the European Union and Ukraine, is a very broad target group, namely: Lublin Executive Board for Maintenance of Border Crossings in Chelm, State Fiscal Service of Ukraine, border services (customs service and border guard service), all persons crossing the border. The circle of beneficiaries of the project is also wide and consists of all persons mentioned as target groups and inhabitants of Hrubieszowski Poviat / Lublin Province (Poland) and Vladimir Region / District Volyn (Ukraine)
