2. Deep Democracy Indicators
2.1 Transparency
International Corruption Perception Index (2012-2013)
The Corruption Perceptions Index ranks countries/territories based
on how corrupt their public sector is perceived to be. A country/territory’s
score indicates the perceived level of public sector corruption on a scale of 0
– 100, where 0 means that a country is perceived as highly corrupt and 100 means
that a country is perceived as very clean. A country's rank indicates its
position relative to the other countries/territories included in the index. 2012 2013 Rank

2.3 The
Economist Intelligence Unit’s Index of Democracy (2012)
The
Economist Intelligence Unit’s Index of Democracy provides a snapshot of the state
of democracy worldwide for 165 independent states and two territories - this
covers almost the entire population of the world and the vast majority of the world’s
states (micro states are excluded). The Democracy index is based on five
categories: electoral process and pluralism; civil liberties; the functioning
of government; political participation; and political culture. Countries are
placed within one of four types of regimes: 1) full democracies; 2) flawed democracies;
3) hybrid regimes; and 4) authoritarian regimes. || Rank 2012 || Type of regime Algeria || 118 || Authoritarian Armenia || 114 || Hybrid Azerbaijan || 139 || Authoritarian Belarus || 141 || Authoritarian Egypt || 109 || Hybrid Georgia || 93 || Hybrid Israel || 37 || Flawed Jordan || 121 || Authoritarian Lebanon || 99 || Hybrid Libya || 95 || Hybrid Republic of Moldova || 67 || Flawed Morocco || 115 || Hybrid Palestine || 103 || Hybrid Syria || 164 || Authoritarian Tunisia || 90 || Hybrid Ukraine || 80 || Hybrid Source:

Ratification of core labour standards (2013)
The core
labour standards are fundamental principles that protect basic human rights in
the workforce. As stated in the ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and
Rights at Work (1998) the core labour standards aim to: (1) eliminate all forms
of forced or compulsory labour; (2) effectively abolish child labour; (3)
eliminate discrimination in respect of employment and occupation; and (4)
ensure the freedom of association and the right to collective bargaining. || Elimination of forced and compulsory labour || Abolition of child labour || Elimination of discrimination in respect of employment and occupation || Freedom of association and collective bargaining Convention || C29 || C105 || C138 || C182 || C100 || C111 || C87 || C98 Algeria || X || X || X || X || X || X || X || X Armenia || X || X || X || X || X || X || X || X Azerbaijan || X || X || X || X || X || X || X || X Belarus || X || X || X || X || X || X || X || X Egypt || X || X || X || X || X || X || X || X Georgia || X || X || X || X || X || X || X || X Israel || X || X || X || X || X || X || X || X Jordan || X || X || X || X || X || X || Not ratified || X Lebanon || X || X || X || X || X || X || X || X Libya || X || X || X || X || X || X || X || X Republic of Moldova || X || X || X || X || X || X || X || X Morocco || X || X || X || X || X || X || Not ratified || X Palestine || - || - || - || - || - || - || - || - Syria || X || X || X || X || X || X || X || X Tunisia || X || X || X || X || X || X || X || X Ukraine || X || X || X || X || X || X || X || X Source: ILOLEX, http://www.ilo.org/ilolex/english/newratframeE.htm
3.4 Gender
Inequality Index (2013)
The
Gender Inequality Index (GII) reflects women’s disadvantage in three
dimensions: reproductive health, empowerment and the labour market. The index
shows the loss in human development due to inequality between female and male
achievements in these dimensions. It ranges from 0, which indicates that women
and men fare equally, to 1, which indicates that women fare as poorly as possible
in all measured dimensions. Ranking (1-187) GII Human

and scope of gender-based disparities around the world. The index benchmarks
national gender gaps on economic, political, education- and health-based
criteria and provides country rankings that allow for effective comparison
across regions and income groups and over time. The Global Gender Gap Report 2013
benchmarks national gender gaps of 136 countries. || Rank 2010 || Rank 2011 || Rank 2012 || Rank 2013 Algeria || 119 || 121 || 120 || 124 Armenia || 84 || 84 || 92 || 94 Azerbaijan || 100 || 91 || 99 || 99 Belarus || N/A || N/A || N/A || N/A Egypt || 125 || 123 || 126 || 125 Georgia || 88 || 86 || 85 || 86 Israel || 52 || 55 || 56 || 53 Jordan || 120 || 117 || 121 || 119 Lebanon || 116 || 118 || 122 || 123 Libya || N/A || N/A || N/A || N/A Republic of Moldova || 34 || 39 || 45 || 52 Morocco || 127 || 129 || 129 || 129 Palestine || N/A || N/A || N/A || N/A Syria || 124 || 124 || 132 || 133 Tunisia || N/A || N/A || N/A || N/A Ukraine || 63 || 64 || 64 || 64 Source:

The
Human Development Index is a summary measure for assessing long-term progress
in three basic dimensions of human development: a long and healthy life, access
to knowledge and a decent standard of living. It ranges from 0 to 1, with the
higher-scoring countries being "developed" and the lower ones being
"developing" or "undeveloped". Ranking (1-187) HDI Human development

Peace Index Ranking (2012-2013)
The Global Peace Index (GPI) comprises more than 20 indicators of
the existence or absence violence or fear of violence (measures on on-going
domestic and international conflict, safety and security in society,
militarisation). The indicators were originally selected with the assistance of
an international panel of independent experts in 2007 and have been reviewed by
the expert panel on an annual basis. 2012 2013 Rank

It
assembles the available international happiness data on how people rate both
their emotions and their lives as a whole, so it aims to measure subjective
well-being. The ranking is based on each country’s average answers to Gallup
World Poll question WP16, where respondents are asked to evaluate the current
state of their lives, using the image of a ladder, with the best possible life
for them as a 10 and the worst possible life as a zero. 2010 - 2012 || || Rank (1-156) || Algeria || || 73 (5.422) || Armenia || || 128 (4.316) || Azerbaijan || || 116 (4.604) || Belarus || || 66 (5.504) || Egypt || || 130 (4.273) || Georgia || || 134 (4.187) || Israel || || 11 (7.301) || Jordan || || 74 (5.414) || Lebanon || || 97 (4.931) || Libya || || 78 (5.340) || Republic of Moldova || || 53 (5.791) || Morocco || || 99 (4.885) || Palestine || || 113 (4.700) || Syria || || 148 (3.892) || Tunisia || || 104 (4.826) || Ukraine || || 87 (5.057) || Source:

Economies
are ranked on their ease of doing business, from 1-189 (2013). A high ranking
on the ease of doing business index means the regulatory environment is more
conducive to the starting and operation of a local firm. This index averages
the country's percentile rankings on 10 topics, made up of a variety of
indicators, giving equal weight to each topic. The 2014 rankings for all economies
are benchmarked to June 2013. Rank 2012 (2013)* Rank 2013 (2014) Change in

definition of unemployment is used from 2008.[2008 - 2012] - Data are related
to the persons aged 15-75.[2009, 2010] - As of whole year. Survey results have

accordance with the ILO standards. It takes into account only the share of
unemployed registered in employment institutions compared to the general number
of economically active population and not the total number of unemployed which
includes the persons who are also job seekers. Gallup survey estimates the
unemployment figure to be 40 times higher – around 24% (data for 2012, source:

the EU's main instrument for funding research in Europe for the period from
2007 to 2013. FP7 is also designed to respond to Europe’s employment needs and
competitiveness. FP7 supports research in selected priority areas - the aim
being to make, or keep, the EU as a world leader in those sectors. FP7 is made
up of 4 main blocks of activities forming 4 specific programmes plus a fifth
specific programme on nuclear research: cooperation (collaborative
research); ideas (European Research Council); people (human
potential, Marie Curie actions); capacities (research capacities);
nuclear research and training. Some of these programmes count significant
cooperation with Neighbourhood partners. *Number

European integration is assessed
through three dimensions: Ø Linkage: growing political,
economic and social ties between each of the six Eastern Partnership (EaP)
countries and the EU; Ø Approximation: structures and
institutions in EaP countries converging towards EU standards and in line with
EU requirements; Ø Management: evolving management
structures for European integration in EaP countries. Benchmarks
were defined by assigning 1 to the best and 0 to the worst possible
performance. || Linkage || Approximation || Management || 2012 || 2013 || 2012 || 2013 || 2012 || 2013 Armenia || 0.48 || 0.49 || 0.56 || 0.59 || 0.43 || 0.51 Azerbaijan || 0.38 || 0.41 || 0.42 || 0.42 || 0.34 || 0.33▼ Belarus || 0.31 || 0.31 || 0.31 || 0.33 || 0.19 || 0.24 Georgia || 0.54 || 0.57 || 0.58 || 0.63 || 0.58 || 0.58 Republic of Moldova || 0.70 || 0.70 || 0.65 || 0.67 || 0.57 || 0.59 Ukraine || 0.67 || 0.65▼ || 0.55 || 0.58 || 0.52 || 0.52 *The

2. ENPI – Cross Border Cooperation
(allocations 2007 – 2013)
The ENPI Cross Border Cooperation
(CBC) programmes have four key objectives: -
promoting
economic and social development in regions on both sides of common borders; -
working
together to address common challenges, in fields such as the environment,
public health and the prevention of and the fight against organised crime; -
ensuring
efficient and secure borders; -
promoting
local cross border 'people-to-people' actions. CBC programmes are co-funded from
the European Neighbourhood and Partnership Instrument (ENPI) and from the
European Regional Development Fund (ERDF). The CBC Indicative
Programme 2007-2010 allocated EUR 583 million (EUR 275 million from the
ENPI and EUR 308 million from the ERDF). Following the mid-term review, a
second CBC Indicative Programme allocated further EUR 538 million
for the period 2011-2013 (EUR 260 million from the ENPI and EUR 278
million from the ERDF).

8.1 Breakdown of TAIEX requests
from ENP Partner countries and the Russian
Federation (number of requests per country) 2006-2013
Technical
Assistance and Information Exchange (TAIEX) was introduced to the ENPI region
in 2006 to offer short-term assistance and advice to Partners as they implement
their ENP Action Plans (Association Agendas for Eastern Partner countries). It
was initially set up in 1996 to provide short-term, targeted technical
assistance to the candidate countries. It supports Neighbouring partners and Russia in the approximation, application and enforcement of EU legislation. It is mainly
demand driven, channels requests for assistance, and contributes to the
delivery of appropriate tailor-made expertise to address problems at short
notice. Assistance is given through expert missions, workshops or seminars and
study visits.
