The Civica Mobilitas is a program of the SDC – Swiss Agency for Development Cooperation in Macedonia, that engaged NIRAS from Denmark, and Macedonian Centre for international cooperation (MCIC), and SIPU from Sweden for implementing the civil society support program Civica Mobilitas. The overall objective of the program is social change in Macedonia, driven by active citizens, a strong civil society sector, and good cooperation between the authorities and civil society at both the central and local level features better governance, decentralization, and social inclusion which are reflected in real improvements in the lives of the citizens.
