Twinning takes place between public institutions from the EU Member States and recipient countries and is financed from EU funds. It involves the exchange of experience in the implementation of EU law and allows for long-term cooperation between partners. The implementation of Twinning projects is based primarily on the organisation of specialised training courses in the beneficiary country and conducting study visits to institutions in the EU Member States country.</p><p>This cooperation contributes to the strengthening of Poland's international position by building a positive image on the international arena, developing political and economic contacts in beneficiary countries, promoting the Polish know-how, and supporting institutional transformation of aid recipients.</p><p><strong>Twinning project for Georgia - UOKiK as a partner in the project “Advancing the Capacities of the Market Surveillance Agency of Georgia" (2023)</strong></p><p>In June 2023, UOKiK won the competition for the twinning project “Advancing the Capacities of the Market Surveillance Agency of Georgia”.

UOKiK will play a leading role in the “Reinforced Market Surveillance Framework” component. The project will start on October 1, 2023, and will last 24 months, with a budget of €1.2 million.</p><p><strong>UOKiK as a partner in the project "Strengthening institutional capacity of the Competition Council" (2021)</strong></p><p>In November 2021, UOKiK as a Junior Partner won the Twinning project in Morocco, in consortium with Greece (Hellenic Competition Commission - HCC, Lead Partner) and Italy (Autorità Garante della Concorrenza e del Mercato - AGCM, Junior Partner).
