Following the Annual Meeting of the Regional Cooperation Council (RCC), RCC Secretary General Majlinda Bregu is to announce the 2022 winner of the Champion of Regional Cooperation Dr Erhard Busek at the special ceremony that is to take place in Budva. The Champion of Regional Cooperation Dr Erhard Busek Award is organized in cooperation with the Ministry for European and International Affairs of the Republic of Austria (BMEIA).

The Champion of Regional Cooperation is an annual award inaugurated by RCC in February 2013 marking the organisation’s 5th anniversary. In 2022, in cooperation with BMEIA, the award has changed its title to Champion of Regional Cooperation Dr Erhard Busek, honouring posthumously Mr Busek who was the Special Co-ordinator of the Stability Pact for South Eastern Europe, the RCC’s predecessor, but also a staunch supporter of the Western Balkans and avid advocate of the region’s integration into the European Union.
