In order to make better use of the OPEN BALKANS initiative, the main goal of the Opportunity4You project is to improve the mechanisms to support the employability and mobility of the workforce in the cross-border area of Serbia and North Macedonia.

The same is achieved by:

Although in recent years North Macedonia has recorded exceptional progress in the field of e-services, still as a country we lag behind the EU members and the Associated countries from the Western Balkans when it comes to the digitalization of the public services as indicated by the E-Government benchmark of the European Commission. 

This is why CKM is taking on a new project, ‘Digital Decade for Strengthened Quality of Public E-services in North Macedonia’, which aims to strengthen the capacity for the development of quality public E-services in North Macedonia aligned with the goals and vision for the European Union’s digital transformation by 2030 and the Western Balkans Digital Agenda.  

This project has started by assessing North Macedonia progress in developing E-services by examining the E-Government benchmark of European Commission, exploring current challenges related to the provision and access of the public e-services by citizens and businesses in the country seen through the eyes of experts and the main stakeholders.

The project is also developing policy briefs and recommendations for the Macedonian Government to help in addressing the shortcomings in the nation’s provision of E-services. This includes organizing meetings with Government representatives that are helping with the prioritization of issues and the provision of solutions. You can read our policy briefs here: LINK

CKM is also working on increasing the public awareness for available digital services for citizens and businesses. The average Macedonian is often not very well informed about their digital rights and the availability of E-services; an issue that CKM wants to address by publishing infographics about the various digital rights and E-services. These infographics can be easily accessed here (LINK) and are available in both Macedonian and Albanian.

The Opportunity4You project is co-financed by the European Union. Cross-border Cooperation Program Serbia - North Macedonia 2016-2020, according to the Instrument for Pre-Accession Assistance (IPA II), allocations 2018, 2019 and 2020
