The Sigma Programme, a joint initiative of the EU and the OECD principally financed by the EU, works with Serbia within the EU's overall policy framework for the Western Balkans, the Stabilisation and Association Process (SAP).
Sigma Activities in Serbia
Serbia, as a potential EU candidate, relies on Sigma assistance in priority areas, such as financial control, civil service and public procurement, and in various activities.
Since its creation in 1992, Sigma has produced several reports on Serbia that you may find of interest, as listed below.
Public Management Profile: Serbia
The 2003 Public Management Profile of Serbia provides comprehensive information on horizontal management systems and identifies the main issues governing the public sector in Serbia in 2003. The profile covers areas such as the constitutional framework, legislative authority, central executive, personnel management, administrative oversight and control, and the management of European integration.
Sigma Assessment Reports: Serbia
These assessment reports are prepared by Sigma at the request of the European Commission and as a contribution to the Commission's annual Progress Reports on EU candidates and potential EU candidates. The reports also provide Serbia with inputs to its reform activities.
In 2008 Sigma's assessment reports covered seven policy areas: public service and the administrative legal framework, policy-making and co-ordination capacities, public expenditure management, public procurement, public internal financial control, external audit, and the public integrity system.
