The '''Brdo-Brijuni Process''' ({{lang-sl|Proces Brdo-Brioni}}) is an annual multilateral event in the [[Place:Balkans#Western Balkans|Western Balkans]]. It was initiated in 2013 by Slovenian president Borut Pahor and Croatian president Ivo Josipović. The first official meeting was in Brdo pri Kranju, Slovenia. The main focus of the Process is the enlargement of the European Union with countries of the Western Balkans. Similar meetings were held at the prime-ministerial level in 2010 and 2011 by then-Prime Ministers of Slovenia and Croatia, Borut Pahor and Jadranka Kosor. The Brdo-Brijuni process includes Slovenia and Croatia (EU member states) and candidates and potential candidates for [[Social:European Union|EU]] membership from the Western Balkans (Serbia, Montenegro, Albania, North Macedonia, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Kosovo).

In 2014, the [[Organization:Berlin Process|Berlin Process]] was initiated by then-Chancellor of Germany [[Biography:Angela Merkel|Angela Merkel]], in which all of the Brdo-Brijuni Process countries are included as well.
