Indicators system shows long-term integration trends of the CIS-12 region
The purpose of the composite index is to combine various aspects of regional cooperation into a
single indicator reflecting the degree of integration of each country with CIS-12
To determine the composite index the nine integration indices of each country were normalized
with the CIS-12 Region, from macroeconomics and trade to labor migration and academic mobility
EIIS was republished twice - in 2009 and 2013
