Multidimensionality
BSFDP may be defined as a process of evolutionary materialization of a new concept of communication employed by Black Sea countries. Communication is therefore perceived as a complex assembly of visions, concepts and practices, as well as initiatives and action plans targeting a more opened attitude displayed by the states in the region towards each other and of the overall region towards any global partners.

BSFDP is a simple approach with a complex development. Its success depends on involving in the common projects dialogue each individual country and government, and well as as many local administrations, NGOs, companies, financing, banking and cultural institutions active in the region, and as many extraregional key partners with similar organization structures as possible.


BSFDP has a very clear political coordinate not only because of the regional scope of the project, but driven as well by the impact it would have on the member states. Its makers, namely the Black Sea countries, pursue in a similar extend both the welfare and the stability of the whole region. This is the base of a political agreement that would materialize by means of a common statement.

The innovative coordinate of the Forum is likely to be the most striking and appealing of all. The Summit organized by Romania aims to be a crystallization center for the future actions taken by companies, authorities and civil society players operating at various levels: national, regional or international. The Forum is actually a confidence vote that the political environment gives to private initiative or to public/private partnerships.

BSFDP has, without any doubt, a very important cultural coordinate that underlies the whole process and accounts for the largest share of its outcome. Taking all in all, the purpose of the Forum is to accomplish a cultural metamorphosis of the region by securing a wider openness towards democratic values.

BSFDP:

facilitates multidimensional connectivity and interactions between the citizens and the organizations active within and outside the region;
facilitates the development of cross-border cooperation;
speeds-up the formation of a common vision over the future of the region and identification of “the commonly accepted and achievable progress type”
increases dynamics of the innovative changes;
allows for a cross-sector harmonization of the regional programs and projects;
set the grounds for a development loop able to contribute to plugging-in the interregional gaps and the ones recorded compared the EU countries.
