This policy note summarizes the results
of technical assistance offered in support of the Government
of Romania (GOR) in its implementation of regional
development programming for European Union (EU) accession.
Three important questions confront Romania's policy
makers: (i) how to operationalize regional and local
development, given the context of EU structural funds; (ii)
how to develop effective mechanisms for multi-level planning
and resource allocation to filter resources (EU net
transfers) to the regional and local levels where they will
be most useful; and (iii) how to build on the successful
experiences of the EU-15 and of projects supported by the
World Bank and other donors that use bottom-up planning and
implementation processes to develop effective local
projects. This note looks at some answers to these questions
as well as at the issues surrounding possible integration of
the Regional Operations Programme (ROP) with other relevant
EU operational programs, notably environment and rural
development. Finally, this report aims to help inform the
World Bank on how best to design future regional and rural
development support programs, given the new context of EU funding. |
