Fostering good governance and public administration reform

The project "Governance Reforms for Satisfied Citizens" aims to put good governance at the top of the political agenda by including good governance measures in all strategic policies of the Government. The intervention is designed to analyze existing problems related to the efficiency of public administration, in order to develop recommendations and new measures to improve management in institutions. The proposed actions support consultation with wider groups in society to design well-thought-out structural reforms and a strong national vision for a democratic society. The project monitors the reforms of the public administration in accordance with the standards for good governance, as well as the quality of the work of the institutions. The goal is, through the implementation of the project activities, to encourage an active public debate and cause pressure for better management and leadership in the administration and the creation of more functional public institutions that will meet the needs of citizens.
