A PPP workshop organized for civil society capacity building

On April 4, 2025, a workshop was held for representatives of civil society organizations (CSOs) and public authorities in Mokra Gora within the project “Implementing Good Governance Principles in Public-Private Partnership Projects (GO PPP)”. The goal of the workshop was to strengthen the knowledge and skills of the participants in the field of PPP, with a special focus on transparency and responsibility in the management of public resources. The participants had the opportunity to gain new knowledge and exchange experiences that will contribute to the improvement of their work.

This workshop represents a step forward towards building the capacity of civil society in Serbia, enabling CSOs to participate more effectively in PPP projects and contribute to better management of public resources in local communities.

The project is supported by a grant from the regional project “SMART Balkans - Civil Society for Shared Society in the Western Balkans” implemented by the Center for Civil Society Promotion (CPCD), Center for Research and Policy Making (CRPM) and the Institute for Democracy and Mediation (IDM), and financially supported by the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs (NMFA). SMART Balkans is a regional project that aims to strengthen participatory democracy and Euro-Atlantic integration in the Western Balkans by empowering civil society organizations and their networks for a more active role in creating peaceful and inclusive societies for sustainable development.

The project’s duration is 20 months, from 1 December 2023 to 31 July 2025. Project value (NOK): 1,650,239.93
