The European Centre for Social Welfare Policy and Research supports the Sustainable Development Goals
In 2009, the responsibility for delivery of social and family services was transferred from the central government to the municipalities. To support the process of decentralization, a strategy was developed in 2012 to be implemented in 2013–2017.
The overall objective of the project was to contribute to the effective transformation of the social service system in Kosovo – focusing on improved quality, availability and sustainability of local social and community-based service delivery for children and vulnerable people living at social risk. Central, municipal and non-state actors including NGOs and social enterprises engaged collaboratively in community-based social service delivery. Municipalities implemented local action plans, with the support of licensed social service providers, and allocated resources for their realization.
