The Executive Director of CCM Neda Maleska Sachmaroska was a guest in a debate on TV 24 where the responsiveness of institutions was discussed and some of her points were that:
Institutions must be faster and more agile in solving citizens' problems, and civil organizations cannot be expected to react. Especially if there are problems in healthcare in the access to medicines where a quick reaction is required, because lives are at stake.
Essential problems remain unsolved due to the constant change of management positions based on political agreements, contrary to the merit system and regardless of the expertise of the persons, which does not allow the continuity of the processes.
MPs have the right and need for travel expenses in the performance of their work tasks, but the problem with us is that MPs' travel expenses are not subject to any restrictions.

Inclusive and confidential counseling, in case of failure to act according to moral and ethical principles. In this way, the accountability and transparency of the Assembly is increased and the possibilities for any abuse are reduced.

Reducing the working hours of the administration on Friday is neither a reform step, nor will it increase the productivity of the employees in the institutions, and on the other hand, as an EU aspirant country, we are sending a bad signal.
We have about 10 institutions with one employee, and at the same time they have a huge number of resources that they use and burden the budget.
In Macedonia there are about 3600 members of management and supervisory boards who annually spend about two million euros.
The project Youth involvement in a constructive dialogue: Communist Past in Contemporary Western Balkan
(YOU-WB) suggests deepening the work in education and raising awareness of the younger generation, opening a debate through an analysis of the causes and consequences of dictatorial regimes, honoring victims and above all, transparency in crimes committed against humanity by communist and other dictatorial regimes.
The transition from communism to post-communism in countries like Albania and North Macedonia has been determined and strongly influenced not only by the collapse of ideologies and by the changes in the international political scene after 1989, but also by the profound changes that effected the customs, lifestyles, and collective mentality in EU. The impunity of the crimes of the communist regime continues to be a serious wound for these societies even 30 years after the fall of the dictatorship and yet it has not established a substantial division from the communist past. In that regard, there can be no reconciliation and peace without historical memory.
Neda Maleska-Sachmaroska in 24 open: Digitalization of public services that are most frequent in the life of a citizen.

On the event, participants discussed about the state of public administration reform in the Republic of North Macedonia, the progress made in this process so far, which is a prerequisite for the country's membership in the European Union, as well as future activities.

Presentation of the electronic way of project registration in the Secretariat for European Affairs and emphasizing the benefits of the introduction of the electronic service.
The service was developed within the project "Digitalization for business continuity in the public sector", funded by the Government of the United Kingdom, with the support of the British Embassy Skopje, and implemented by the Center for Change Management, in cooperation with the Secretariat for European Affairs.
Overstaffed administration, minimal reforms. For years, governments have indicated that administrative reforms are necessary, but so far no one has taken it seriously to rearrange the huge state administrative apparatus. But instead, politics and parties have been constantly filling the institutions with their own party cadres, which has made it very difficult to rearrange it into a professional service to the citizens. What reforms are needed and where to start.
The developed electronic services of the Ministry of Education and Science were presented at the conference, and a discussion was opened on the benefits of digital transformation in the public sector.
The services were developed within the project "Digitalization for business continuity in the public sector", funded by the Government of the United Kingdom, with the support of the British Embassy Skopje, and implemented by the Center for Change Management, in cooperation with the Ministry of Information Society and administration.
The conference was addressed by the Minister of Education and Science Mila Carovska, the Minister of Information Society and Administration Jeton Shaqiri, the Deputy Ambassador of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland Dominique Otwai, the Program Coordinator at the Center for Change Management Martin Todevski, senior political in SIGMA Kaido Pabusk and the professor of FCSE Boro Jakimovski. The event was moderated by the Executive Director of CCM Neda Maleska Sachmaroska.
At the debate together with the Minister of Education and Science Mila Carovska and the experts Nick Morgan from Scotland and Sandra Kucina Softic from Croatia,we talked about how the countries in Europe, including our country, coped with the sudden changes in the education sector, ie the change from classroom to online teaching. We shared the experiences from the implementation of distance learning in our country as well as in Scotland and Croatia, talked about the opinions and experiences of teachers, parents and students, which are part of the whole process and agreed on the importance of digital literacy and on which level is in our country, and at which in more developed countries.
It is necessary to modernize or digitize education in all segments and services, as well as reforms that will create an easily adaptable teaching process in times of crisis.
"November - a month of public service discussions." Together with partner organizations, we conducted public service research at central and local levels. The purpose of these discussions is to provide an overview of all identified problems before decision makers and public institutions, findings, but also recommendations from researchers to improve service delivery in many selected areas of society. The recommendations provide a basis for initial steps to improve some of the analyzed services, and before that to open a public discussion for modernization of services for citizens. The Assembly has an obligation to supervise the work of public institutions from a functional, financial and in terms of implementation of the planned reforms, hence the delivery of services to users, and the basis for oversight hearings can be data and information from civil society organizations. Such synergy is not only a modern way of broad involvement of citizens in policy making and monitoring, but also a jointly strengthened influence for the implementation of reforms for the benefit of citizens.
The Center for Change Management (CCM) has introduced a new tool to encourage citizens to make changes in the public sphere by submitting initiatives on our website. You need to design and enter your initiative on our website and start spreading the idea of change, you can also support the already published initiatives.

Strengthening women's entrepreneurship and providing sustainable solutions for the development of women's micro and small businesses is very important to harness the potential of women. It is especially important to work in rural areas and border regions, where women do not have enough support to encourage and start a business.
Such activities should increase the personal entrepreneurial skills and business competencies of women involved in formal or informal businesses. To provide legal support services in business operations. Improve production, access to market opportunities and business development opportunities and increase cross-border cooperation. Improve and revise government measures and policies for local and national support for women entrepreneurship.
