Description
The aim of the project is to make use of the experience that Association of Towns and Communities of Slovakia obtained in the area of modernization of local territorial self-government and in implementing the right to good governance, principles of the corporate social responsibilities and transparent measures in local governments so that the Ukrainian self-governments can draw not only inspiration but also learn lessons on pros and cons. Launching the project in October 2020 will allow the involvement of the new leadership of the Ukrainian authorities, which will be elected in the autumn 2020 elections. The transfer of knowledge will include experiences from Norway in the area of services of general interest, proven experiences in implementing the principles of the concept of corporate (territorial) social responsibility and anti-corruption strategies and transparent measures at local level. The project will benefit not only the Ukrainian authorities, but also their Slovak partners. However, the main target group will be representatives of the Ukrainian self-government, mayors, staff of regional and local structures in the self-government. The project partners will also benefit by gaining unique knowledge in the field of transfer of Slovak, Norwegian and Ukrainian experience, which they, in turn, will be able to further use and disseminate. The project will strengthen relations among national local governments´ associations from Slovakia, Ukraine and Norway as an added value.
