Naxta combines different complementary experiences in designing projects and providing technical assistance in the fields of European integration, international cooperation and internationalisation.
We serve the needs of public authorities, territorial and economic development agencies, resource centres, business representative organisations wishing to strengthen and develop international activities.
Naxta develops and delivers project de- sign, technical assistance, project management and monitors opportunities within European and international development programmes. In the context of the European Union enlargement and of the increasingly more significant role of Community support for socio-economic development and cohesion, we aim to promote the European integration of public and semi-public bodies.
To achieve an efficient transfer of knowledge and practices we provide specialist technical assistance for international cooperation initiatives implemented by companies, governmental and non-governmental organisations.
Furthermore, in the context of the ever more complex dynamics of a global market, we work to facilitate the process of internationalisation providing tools for promoting existing resources and identifying new potential opportunities.

The study visit for a Libyan delegation of trainers of labour inspectors within the European project “Tandheem Wata’aheel”, managed by the NGO Super Novae, has concluded. The project aims to strengthen the capacities of the Ministry of Labour and Rehabilitation through the training of trainers of labour inspectors on international safety standards and training techniques.
With the aim to facilitate the implementation of the Resolution 1500 on decentralisation, from summer 2023 to autumn 2024 Naxta carried out three initiatives with UNDP and in collaboration with the Ministry of Local Government (MoLG), through Italian and EU funds. These initiatives aimed to strengthen the institutional and operational capacities (institutional strengthening and capacity building) of over 50 Libyan municipalities, contributing to improving the delivery of basic and social services, making them more efficient and inclusive.
The project provides support to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and European Integration to effectively and efficiently coordinate the EU integration process and to strengthen the capacity and accountability of the NIPAC Office, line ministries and other stakeholders to improve the planning, programming, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of the IPA II assistance and ensure sector coordination. The project also aims to assist in the preparation of negotiations for Chapter 22 (structural funds).
The project aims at promoting the adoption of energy policies for the introduction of Renewable Energy Communities (REC) through the sharing and exchange of experience among public authorities at different levels. Through workshops, regional and interregional conferences and study visits, partners are enabled to directly and indirectly intervene on their energy policies for the introduction of RECs, improving citizens’ well-being and contrasting energy poverty.
The project aims to apply the key principles of Industry 4.0 (I4.0) to the Blue Economy, helping SMEs operating on both sides of the Adriatic sea to innovate products and production processes by aiming at technological progress, digitalization and forms of sustainable development compatible with the environment. To achieve these objectives BEST4.0 will produce: a catalogue for I4.0, a cross-border digital innovation hub network, to support the digital transformation of SMEs and an innovation capacity development paths for 160 Blue Economy SMEs.
