Early Warning Reports

EWR was a project initiated and financed by UNDP, aimed at providing the Romanian government with objective advice from independent sources. The goal of the program is to monitor the socio-political and economic developments in order to identify the situations with crisis potential. UNDP commissioned this series of monthly reports to SAR beginning with May 2001. Our team of experts monitor and analyze on a permanent basis the developments in four main areas: Economy, Society, Politics and Rule of Law.

SAR took the initiative of publishing the first Early Warning Report on the Republic of Moldova together with the IDIS ('Viitorul') Foundation from Chisinau. Read here the first issue. (En/Ro).
