In 2015, UNDP launched the implementation of the Strengthening the Role of Local Communities/Mjesne zajednice in Bosnia and Herzegovina Project, which is financed jointly by the Government of Switzerland and the Government of Sweden. The project goal is to improve quality of life of the citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina (B&H) through improving local infrastructure and services, increasing democratic accountability and social inclusion. The chosen means to achieve this goal is through encouraging community-led local development and revitalising of mjesne zajednice (MZs) as the places where government comes closest to the people and as grass-roots organisations that serve communities, with the possibility for real participation and joint action.
The Project’s implementing strategy is to support and drive forward change from bottom-up by engaging citizens and communities and giving them a voice in local governance processes, and by revitalising MZs as spaces where citizens come together to interact and involve, to identify and solve problems, to transmit their concerns to the local government and participate in the ways it makes its plans, spends their money and takes decisions that affect people’s lives. In doing so, the Project places MZs and their communities at the centre of its work, while also relying on a broad range of relevant stakeholders to sustain and expand Project results and increase democratic accountability. The Project works with 24 LGs and 136 MZs country-wide. The key Project stakeholders are the following LGs: Banja Luka, Bijeljina, Brcko distrikt, Gracanica, Gradacac, Gradiška, Ilijaš, Jablanica, Kljuc, Kotor Varoš, Laktaši, Ljubinje, Ljubuški, Nevesinje, Olovo, Pale FBiH, Petrovo, Rudo, Sanski Most, Stari Grad Sarajevo, Tešanj, Visoko, Zenica, Žepce, as well as their respective local communities that are part of the project.
Focus of this Terms of Reference is on the Project Outcome 3, which is related to providing support to the governments in B&H in development of a new regulatory framework for functional MZs that enables more inclusive, gender-sensitive and accountable local governance in BiH. Goal is for the project to support creation of a legal basis for a more effective functioning of all the MZs in the country. In that light, the project has developed comprehensive studies on new vision of the MZs and legal analysis of the MZ status in BiH, which supports the aim of the third outcome which is to create a new legal structure that fits with the vision across all tiers of the government in B&H, and to create an environment where MZs can become effective and democratic channels for citizens to participate in their own governance.
