Since 2010, the European Union (EU) has been engaging the countries of the Eastern Partnership — Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Moldova and Ukraine — in regional cooperation in order to improve national capacities for managing and sharing environmental data and information. This cooperation was funded by the European Commission and implemented by the European Environment Agency (EEA) under the framework of the project ′Towards a Shared Environmental Information System in the European Neighbourhood′. The project supported the implementation of the flagship initiative on Good Environmental Governance within the Eastern Partnership. The outcomes of this four year regional cooperation show significant improvements in putting in place national coordination structures, mobilising capacities to produce environmental indicators and upgrading information systems for better reporting and easier sharing of environmental data. To consolidate and sustain this knowledge base, further efforts are needed to prepare regular indicator-based ′State of the environment′ reports (SoER) to address national and regional priorities, and provide input to global processes. This will in turn provide a framework for countries to further conceptualise and develop their national environmental information systems, and embed SEIS objectives principles in their long-term strategies on e-governance. A comprehensive overview of important advancements made in all Eastern Partnership countries can be found in the recently published ENPI-East Region Synthesis Report, available in English and Russian at the project website: http://enpi-seis.pbe.eea.europa.eu
