Ma lmplic - Project on civic engagement in local governance
Moldovan local public administrations are often unable to respond to the needs of the population in an inclusive and sustainable way. Capacity to hold local authorities accountable is poor and citizens are reluctant to engage in public affairs. Switzerland will support Moldova to enhance participation in local development and decision-making, to further improve public service provision in rural areas and ensure a better framework for decentralisation. A strong focus will be put on the inclusion of excluded groups.

Contexte |
Due to a high degree of fragmentation of local government, deficit of human resources, limited revenues base, non-transparent access to regional and national capital investment funds, and lack of guidance from the central level, local public administrations are often unable to fulfil their mandate and respond to the needs of the population in a participatory, effective, inclusive and sustainable way. There is a vast gap in accessing communal services between rural and urban areas, where the majority of the population lives, as weil as between vulnerable groups and those that have better social and economic status. The public's capacity to hold local authorities accountable is poor and citizens are reluctant to engage in public affairs because they do not trust the authorities. There is a number of ongoing reforms, which aim at strengthening decentralised entities, and the new governement made decentralisation a clear priority. This provides a momentum for Switzerland to step in and contribute to the proper implementation of reforms.
