Since 2006, various Kosovo Municipalities have been supported in the field of spatial and urban planning by the Municipal Spatial Planning Programmes (MuSPP), funded by Sida and implemented by UN-HABITAT. In its first phase from 2006- 2008 the Programme’s focus was on-the-job-assistance and guidance to municipal planning bodies in the local government, civil society in drafting Municipal and Urban Development Plans. The second phase of the Programme shifted from this advice to the direct support to the municipalities in drafting municipal/urban plans and urban design projects to full engagement of municipal and MuSPP staff.
