CASE in Belgrade: Improving Management Procedures at the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Serbia

Serbia aims to one day join the EU, but the emerging market economy requires institutional modernization to bring its governance system in line with the best European standards and practices. 

Representing CASE, Marek Dabrowski visited the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Serbia for a five-day mission.  The trip kicked-off a project to establish modern internal governance and management procedures within the Ministry that will enable more functional and uniform operations, improve quality control mechanisms and enhance the organizational and ethical culture. 

The meeting was the first stage of an OSI-LGI funded CASE project.  Having exposed the challenges faced by the Ministry, during subsequent meetings CASE will develop channels for improvement in human resource management, internal communication, document flows, recording and overall culture at the Ministry.
