Support for developing better country knowledge on public administration and institutional capacity building

The overall purpose of EUPACK was to enhance knowledge and understanding of the status and reform dynamics of public administration in EU Member States, as well as the contribution of external support for improving its quality, with a view to better targeting EU support in this area in the future. The two specific objectives were:

1)    To develop a consistent country and thematic overview on the characteristics of public administrations in Member States, as well as on the content, outcomes and impact of reforms in this area (esp. Task 1 & Task 2)

2)    To understand the effects and effectiveness of EU and other support, approaches and initiatives to enhancing quality of public administration in EU Member States (esp. Task 3)

PPMI described the Lithuanian public administration system and its performance in EU28, as well as assessed the contribution of ESF to public administration reform in the country. These tasks were completed based on the results of desk research, the analysis of monitoring and administrative data, as well as interviews with Lithuanian governmental institutions.
