Форуми во заедницата

Topic – One of the main characteristics of the budget forum is that the topic of the Forum is defined in advance – preparation of the budget of the municipality for the upcoming year.

Forum sessions – The Budget forums are delivered in six forum sessions:
1. Session for constitution of the forum where the priorities for the budget of the municipalities are to be discussed
2. Session where the revenues of the municipalities are to be discussed
3. Session where the priority expenditures of the budget of the municipality are to be discussed
4. Session where the priority expenditures of the budget of the municipality are to be discussed
5. Session where the budget line (capital investments) that will be co-financed by SDC is to be selected
6. Subsequent session for the purpose of reporting on the methods of implementing projects financed with the budget of the municipality

Working tables – their structure is in accordance with the budget stakeholders and are defined on bases of the major municipal activities i.e. budget items, for example, local infrastructure, education and culture, transport and communication, etc.

Budget – The Municipality will participate in the Project fund, where the funds will be spent locally in accordance with the decisions adopted at the Forum. The Project fund for each Forum (each municipality) will be comprised of financial assets allocated by SDC on bases of the participation provided by the municipality.
The projects selected to be financed will be part of the budget of the municipality i.e. the programme. This is the single difference from the Community Forums.

The right to participate - is awarded only to municipalities in Republic of Macedonia that have already participated in the Programme.
