The Western Balkans Regional Economic Area (WBREA) aims at developing an area where goods, services, investments and skilled workers can move without obstacles. This WBREA will be put into operation through a multiannual action plan, endorsed by the Western Balkans leaders at the Trieste Summit on 12 July 2017. The action plan comprises four dimensions: trade, investment, mobility and digital market. On the dimension of mobility, the parties agreed to remove obstacles to mobility of professionals, through regional mutual recognition agreements of professional qualifications and to remove obstacles to mobility of students, researchers and academics.
