Description

Transparency, fiscal sustainability and competitiveness of municipalities are the core conditions for ensuring the effective functioning of public services and raising the living standard for the citizens. We would like to pass down our know-how from successfully executed activities in Slovakia to our Ukrainian partner to help the municipalities and local governments in Ukraine create better conditions for the development of economic activity. The first activity is defining a package of anti-corruption recommendations to increase the transparency in the municipalities. It is based on our experience with battling the corruption in Slovakia. The second activity is creating a web portal about the financial management of the towns and cities. It significantly helped decrease the municipal debt in Slovakia after towns and cities disclosed the budgetary information in a transparent way. Moreover, due to the pressure from the public and the media, the representatives of the towns and cities are obliged to stay within the limits of effective financial management, which were often neglected in the past. The third activity is creating an interactive model of the competitiveness of Ukrainian regions to help identifying their competitive advantages and disadvantages and designing individual strategies for development. This activity helped our local representatives in gaining useful tools for further development of the regions. The project will be carried out by independent experts from Slovakia and Ukraine. The results are addressed for the municipal representatives, so that they govern the towns and cities responsibly and with the interest of reaching a sustainable economic development.
