The North
Carolina - Moldova Partnership for Peace program is based upon an agreement to link
these two states together to better facilitate cooperation in the areas of civil
emergency operations, expansion of markets, cultural, scientific and academic
exchanges, and the coordination of humanitarian efforts of many governmental and
non-governmental organizations.
The North
Carolina - Moldova Partnership was formalized on April 22, 1999 by the Republic
of Moldova and the State of North Carolina. It has since evolved into a partnership
that includes the efforts of many more organizations and individuals to include
private firms, civic organizations and non-profit agencies. The partnership
is a bi-lateral association with planning committees in both North Carolina and
the Republic of Moldova who work together in a cooperative effort to improve and
enrich the lives of everyone it touches.
