1) Background
Between 1992 and 2010, EU support to AZ amounted to just over €475 million, with annual allocation reaching around €20 million over the last few years.
EU assistance has changed over time. Initial assistance during the 1990's and early 2000's focused on humanitarian aid, food security and social protection. Following political stabilisation in AZ and the arrival of new instruments under the ENPI in 2007, EU assistance has shifted towards the implementation of the ENP Action Plan, diversification of the non-oil economy, and capacity building of government structures, although it still maintains a focus on poverty reduction and social protection.
Since 2009, the EU also supports CSO implemented actions under the Human Rights, Democratisation and Non State Actor budget lines (EIDHR and NSA-LA financing).
