The Centre for Contemporary Politics/Portal European Western Balkans (CCP/EWB) with the support of the Southeast Europe Leadership for Development and Integrity (SELDI), implements MACPI tool (short for Monitoring Anticorruption Policy Implementation) in Serbia. MACPI is a tool developed in 2014 in cooperation with the DG HOME of the EU Commission. It consists of the questionnaire and subsequent research.
WHAT?
The purpose of the tool is to help the institutions to curb potential shortcomings that potentially could allow development of corrupt practices.
The current focus is to examine effectiveness of functioning of the Council for Economic Development and the Development Agency of Serbia regarding investments and investments of special importance.
You can find the questionnaire on the following link: https://vrsurveys.com/index.php/498864.
The goal of the questionnaire is to collect the impressions and perceptions about the functioning of system of granting of subsidies for investments and investments of special importance and to identify eventual shortcomings and challenges. Our aim is not to identify the concrete cases of malfunctioning the system (for example, concrete cases of corruption), but to uncover shortcomings and challenges in the system and to develop recommendations on how to address them in a systemic way.
CCP/EWB would kindly like to ask FIC members to fill out this anonymous questionnaire. The questionnaire is in Serbian language.
Participants:

(usually financial managers and/or members of the administrative staff of boards of directors).
WHY PARTICIPATE?
With participation in the MACPI implementation and filling out the questionnaire you will help the work of both the civil society and the state institutions who are focused on the improvement of the rule of law, which is one of the key preconditions for Serbia’s advance in the EU integration process.
