Abstract

In the original language

This case study was produced during the project ‘Progress Assessment of the ESF Support to Public Administration - PAPA’, that was contracted by DG Employment, Social Affairs and Inclusion of the European Commission. The purpose of this project was to present specific cases of ESF-funded public administration reform and capacity building initiatives, as well as to show the role of ESF financial support to public administration for accountability purposes. This report provides a story on the project ‘Improvement of administrative capacities of municipalities on the basis of municipal collaboration’, which discusses its context and purpose; characteristics of the team implementing it; main challenges faced and difficulties encountered during implementation; key developments during the implementation process; results and impacts achieved; as well as lessons learnt and the contribution of ESF.
