Connecting Capacity-Building and EU-oriented Policy Practice among BiH Civil Servants

The project is supported by the European Union and the British Council BiH, as part of the program EU Scheme for Young Professionals.

This project targets civil servants across all levels of government in BiH involved in EU integration process, especially public civil servants at local levels of government (municipal and city).

Project Goals

  1. To enhance the professional capacity of the newly established EUSYP BiH Alumni network;
  2. To facilitate the initial alumni work and public engagement in promoting EU-oriented civil service in Bosnia and Herzegovina through implementing an awareness-building project that instills a commitment to the EU values and increases civil servants’ knowledge and understanding of the EU accession process across all levels of government in BiH, including local (municipal/city).

The EUSYP Alumni will work on improving their horizontal network capacities and collaborate with local civil servants through engaging in raising awareness on EU’s role in local-level policies in the EU and non-EU context, as well as on the development of innovative solutions for local problems in BiH, which can be funded through EU’s funding schemes


Their work will specifically focus on:

  • municipal services for citizens (public admin reform); social care and social services;
  • local crisis management (capacities and preparation for natural and other types of crisis); economic recovery in the post-COVID period;
  • implementation of “green deal” and other climate change prevention measures locally.
