In the third phase, MuSPP again focused on sustainable development of partner municipalities through strategic and comprehensive planning interventions with particular focus on the environment, along with enhanced local democracy and the improving of the physical environment. Plans were turned into Capital Investments Projects with co-financing of partner municipalities.

MuSPP offered support to increase capacities to four newest MuSPP municipalities. The priority was also to support MESP and ISP and other central bodies with policy and strategy development for Spatial and Environmental Planning to help ensure there are prepared to give continued assistance to the municipalities.

The MuSPP’s Partner Municipalities were as follows: Ferizaj/Uroševac, Gjilan/Gnjilane, Graçanicë/Gračanica, Hani i Elezit/Elez Han, Junik/Junik, Malishevë/Mališevo, Mamushë/ Mamuša, Mitrovicë/ Mitrovica, Partesh/Parteš, Pejë/ Peć, Prizren/Prizren and Rahovec/Orahovac.

MuSPP has developed guidelines and training modules to be utilized in the years to come. All the products of MuSPP are being compiled to form a ‘MuSPP Toolbox: My Companion towards Self Sufficiency’, which continue to be a ready-to-use resource for governmental institutions at the central and local level, non-governmental organizations, universities, the private sector, professional associations, and civil society.

Funding partner: Swedish Government, Government of Kosovo, partner municipalities
