Hintergrund |
Advancing democracy and raising governance standards remain key transition elements for Macedonia. Challenges remain in the separation of powers between the legislature, the executive, and the judiciary, the performance of all state bodies, the independence of the media, and the fight against corruption. Since the start of Worldwide Governance Indicators (WGI) in 2002, Macedonia booked regress on one indicator, i.e. voice and accountability. This is the WGI indicator that is the most relevant to the civil society (CS) as it measures the levels of fundamental freedom of association and civic participation. |

Resultate von früheren Phasen: Since its creation in 2009, Civica Mobilitas has contributed to the institutional strengthening of CSOs and their influence on policy making and implementation in selected fields of reform. The main result of Civica Mobilitas reached through its grantees’ activities is the increased acknowledgment of CSOs as a reliable counterpart to the local government in policy making and in overseeing the work of the municipal authorities. For example, upon the initiative of one grantee the EU now requires the “Improvement of transparency of public procurement” as a precondition for EU accession.
