Project Description:

The “Light Borders in DKMT” project aims to improve the permeability of the Hungary–Serbia border and support more efficient cross-border mobility. The project examined road, cycling, railway, and waterway border crossings, identifying potential improvements in infrastructure and border crossing procedures. Eight thematic workshops were organised to facilitate knowledge exchange and dialogue among institutions, local authorities, and professional stakeholders involved in border management. As a result, two professional studies were prepared, providing a detailed analysis of the current situation at border crossing points and the development possibilities of cross-border infrastructure. These studies serve as a basis for future development initiatives, policy decisions, and the establishment of more efficient and sustainable border crossing processes in the region.

(Expected) Results:

  • Opening and closing conferences
  • 4 thematic workshops in Vojvodina
  • 4 thematic workshops in Hungary
  • 2 studies:
  1. Situation study about the cross-border points between Serbia and Hungary
  2. Improvement possibilities of Hungary - Serbia cross-border infrastructure
  • Border points equipment
