Municipalities and Cities are the Main Drivers of Change in the European Integration Process

Published 06.07.2017.

jls_euMinister of European Integration in the Government of the Republic of Serbia, Jadranka Joksimović, said that, from 2016 to 2020, Serbia could expect EUR 1 billion in grants from the European Union for the reform process.

At the “Support to Local Self-governments in Serbia on the Road to the EU” meeting, Joksimović stressed that not only high political issues are important for European integration, but also particular programmes, contribution to development, support to innovations and preparation for a better future of Serbia in the EU.

At the same time, she stressed that the European Union remains, despite all problems, the best place to live.

Joksimović indicated that municipalities and cities would be the primary drivers of change, pointing out that 60 to 70 percent of regulations for reaching the European standards refer to local self-governments.

Reforms, progress and the development of society were key words, she said, announcing that the Ministry of European Integration would deal with the development and use of funds, with Serbia having EUR 200 million available from the IPA funds annually.

With regard to other resources, she listed programmes such as Horizon 2020, Competitiveness Programme for Small and Medium Enterprises, Employment and Social Innovation Programme, Creative Europe, Europe for Citizens, European Health Programme, Customs Programme 2020 and others.
