Ten GAP2 partner municipalities introduced innovative program budgeting to their 2012 budgets
Despite challenges they have faced in the process, 10 partner municipalities have greatly improved their budgeting capacities, adopted new program budgeting techniques, and demonstrated their newly acquired skills by developing complex program documents, and corresponding program budgets for at least two municipal sectors.GAP2 has put significant efforts over the past seven months into enabling its 10 partner municipalities (Gradiška, Mrkonjić Grad, Srbac, Trebinje, Lopare, Žepče, Goražde, Ilijaš, Konjic and Jablanica) to make the transition from traditional line-item budgeting to a more efficient, participatory, and transparent budgeting process.
