The FBA has launched the project Local Self-Government and the Rule of Law in Ukraine, that aims to strengthen and integrate rule of law principles in public services at the level of local self-government.
An important part of the project is to increase awareness among citizens about their rights when claiming services, while also strengthening civil society’s capacity in ensuring accountability in public institutions at the local level. The project will complement ongoing reform processes in decentralization and local governance, and contribute to greater transparency in the public administration in Ukraine.
