Contexto

Macedonia is willing to become a member of the EU. In this perspective the country has adopted a new legislation in 2011 which is compliant with EU directives. National authorities are however facing a great challenge in the implementation of the legislation. This is especially true for the Ministry of Environment and Physical Planning (MoEPP) which has the water management under its umbrella. The MoEPP is therefore asking for support.
