The interlocutors highlighted the models of “single administrative posts”, strengthening inter-municipal cooperation, and the exchange of institutional and expert knowledge.
Paunović underlined that the goal is for every municipality in Serbia to have a single administrative post established by the end of 2026, and that there will be at least 80 of them by the end of this year.
An important segment of the talks was dedicated to personnel policy in the public sector and the inclusion of young professionals.
Following the bilateral meeting, a thematic session was held with Finnish experts in the field of digitalisation and public administration organisation, with the participation of representatives of both ministries.
Serbia and Finland mark 96 years of diplomatic relations, and Finland continuously supports Serbia's European integration and reform processes in the public sector.
