Обука за градење на капацитетите на локалната самоуправаDecentralization is a complex process, narrowly linked with the endeavours made by Republic of Macedonia for its EU integration with the ultimate goal of improvement of the services for  the citizens, and thus, leading to improvement of the living standard.

A modern, European type of local self-government requires skills and competent governance in the municipalities. The acceptance of the new standards and values in the functioning of the local self-government, new organizational culture, strengthened capacities of the administration through knowledge and skills advancement is a step towards efficient and effective meeting of the needs and interests of the citizens.

The professionalization of the local self-government, through acquisition of new knowledge and skills, represents an imperative for the successful implementation of decentralization and efficiency of the local self-government. Thus, the institutional and governing capacity represents one of the most important factors in the provision of long-term and sustainable development of the communities.

A precondition for effective and efficient local self-government, prepared to respond to the needs and requirements of the citizens, for fast and timely solution to the problems in the communities, represents the strengthening of the institutional and governing capacity of the municipalities through investments in the human development.

Overall goal of the project was improved services to the citizens in the communities.
