Administrative and organizational capacities of civil society in EU Cohesion Policy
研究了捷克和葡萄牙57个城市综合发展计划及33个访谈，发现公民社会组织的行政能力不仅低于公共部门，其内部也存在差异。
Administrative capacities are among the crucial factors influencing success in European Union (EU) Cohesion Policy absorption. The current research concentrates on the public sector, while administrative capacities in other stakeholders are omitted. Our research focuses on whether local stakeholders from civil society have sufficient capacities to contribute effectively and efficiently to EU Cohesion Policy implementation. We performed our research on 57 integrated urban development plans in Czechia and Portugal and conducted 33 interviews with local entities. The results indicate a different level of capacity not only between the public and civil society organizations but also within civil society.
