Os Diálogos Setoriais são uma nova dinâmica de cooperação entre a União Europeia (UE) e o Brasil. Atualmente, há cerca de 30 diálogos mapeados entre o Brasil e a UE sobre os mais diversos temas, que se dão com base em princípios de reciprocidade e complementaridade e visam o intercâmbio de conhecimentos e experiências em áreas de interesse mútuo.Nesse contexto, foi criado o Projeto Apoio aos Diálogos Setoriais UE-Brasil, que tem como objetivo contribuir para o progresso e o aprofundamento da parceria estratégica e das relações bilaterais entre o Brasil e a União Europeia por meio do apoio ao intercâmbio de conhecimentos técnicos. É coordenado em conjunto pelo Ministério do Planejamento, Orçamento e Gestão (MPOG) – por meio da Direção Nacional do Projeto – e pela Delegação da União Europeia no Brasil (DELBRA). - See more at: http://sectordialogues.org/pt-br/pagina-estatica/projeto/apresentacao#sthash.FuGUcQ8O.dpuf
