Project aim
The project aims to strengthen the capacity of civil society organisations and the media in the Western Balkans to participate in the creation and implementation of public administration reform. Civil society organisations have been recognized as important actors in creating public policy at national and regional levels, which is why the project seeks to strengthen its supervisory and consulting capabilities. Quality and analytical reporting by the media on the topic of public administration reform based on the arguments and evidence has an equally important role in these processes. Therefore, the project as another target group turns right media.
