In line with the general theme of the
conference, the Working Group on Local Government focuses on
the relationship of regionalisation and local governance in Central and Eastern
Europe (CEE) and the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS).
Both
the functional needs of public administration and the requirements of the EU
structural funds led several countries in CEE to establish or to reform the middle
level between the central and local government tiers.
The general aim of the working goup is based on the reflections of the CEE or CIS problems, regional–local
relationship live up to the normative expectations and highlight of the similarities and differences
between countries or regions.
