Projects
Fostering Good Governance and Public Administration Reform (Third phase)
This project aims to contribute to strengthening democracy in North Macedonia by establishing a functional system of institutional accountability and transparency. The project will enable practical monitoring of the implementation of the Government Work Program and key reform priorities, through publicly available and measurable indicators. In this way, citizens, media and civil society organizations will receive a tool with which they can monitor the progress of institutions, recognize weaknesses and seek better results.
The project builds on the long-standing work of the Center for Change Management (CCM) in the area of good governance and public administration in building a culture of accountability and promoting active citizen participation in the processes of creating and monitoring public policies.
