OG: Increasing the capacity of the Association for the Promotion of Romanian Food (APAR) and of 25 partner NGOs and its social partners, to formulate and promote, in the long term, alternative proposals to public policies initiated by the Government, by developing an alternative public policy in the field of export promotion of Romanian products and training 60 people, staff from its partner NGOs and social partners. In the long term, the project will produce positive effects as a result of adapting the activities both to the specifics of the target group and to the national specificities and the integrated approach to the needs of its members. Equipping the members of the target group with the necessary competences both to formulate alternative proposals to public policies initiated by the Government and to ensure their promotion, contributes to increasing the transparency and optimisation of decision-making processes oriented towards citizens and the business environment. The development of key competences required by civil society, NGOs and social partners in order to formulate and promote public policies ensures flexibility and allows them to adapt them more quickly to changes and changes in the system, thus creating prerequisites for successful implementation of reforms in public administration. The aim of the project is within the general objective of POCA, being in line with the measures set out in the Strategy for Strengthening Public Administration 2014-2020 (SCAP) by increasing the capacity of 25 NGOs and social partners to get involved in formulating and promoting alternative proposals to public policies initiated by the Government and by developing an alternative proposal to existing public policies in the field of export promotion of Romanian products.
