Un impegno continuo per il buon governo: è uscita la pubblicazione ELoGE!

Il programma ELoGE - Etichetta europea di eccellenza nella governance, è un programma creato dal Consiglio d'Europa come strumento di misurazione del buon governo e della democrazia, in cui i comuni vengono valutati in base al loro livello di governance locale secondo i 12 principi di buon governo democratico stabiliti dal Consiglio d'Europa.
ELoGE si basa su un partenariato tra il Consiglio d'Europa e un'entità regionale, nazionale o transnazionale di prestigio esistente o una piattaforma ad hoc con un know-how, una competenza o un'esperienza sostanziale nel campo del buon governo, soprattutto a livello locale.
ALDA, che ha la democrazia e il buon governo al centro della sua missione, è stata accreditata per l'attuazione del programma in diversi comuni della Croazia, del Kosovo* e della Macedonia settentrionale e li ha sostenuti con successo fornendo orientamento, consulenza e formazione.
Lo scopo di questa pubblicazione è quello di informare i lettori sulla metodologia di ALDA e sui risultati ottenuti nell'ambito del programma ELoGE nei Paesi sopra citati, e di fornire una buona comprensione del funzionamento interno e delle fasi del programma.

Europe and its next steps: ALDA for the Conference on the Future of Europe

As emerged from all the initiatives, ALDA is strongly advocating not only for a closer collaboration between CSOs and institutions but also for a greater citizens’ involvement. Hence, the Association will further stress the importance of participatory democracy; while urging for an electoral reform as well as accountability assurance as resulted from the surveys undertaken within the CSOCoFoE.
ALDA is very much in favour of this bottom-up democratic approach, and it congratulates all the institutions, organisations, partners and members which also actively participated in the CoFoE

Partenariati tra città sorelle: gli attori subnazionali nella cooperazione tra la Repubblica Popolare Cinese e la Repubblica di Macedonia del Nord

SINTESI ESECUTIVA
In order to better understand China’s presence in the Western Balkans, and particularly North Macedonia, it is important to understand the interests and nature of Chinese cooperation initiatives, especially their slant towards the local level. The purpose of this brief is to examine local level cooperation between municipalities from China and North Macedonia, the potential benefits, risks and actual achievements. To that effect, the analysis is based on five case studies of sister-city partnerships between Macedonian and Chinese municipalities. Arguably there is willingness to collaborate on both sides.
