The “Strategy of regional development for the region of Central BiH 2009-2015” is a document that should serve all the stakeholders of regional development as the basis for planning of development programs and projects. The strategy is the result of the work of local and cantonal authorities, non-governmental organizations, educational and cultural institutions, entrepreneurs and other representatives of the public and private sector who, through the REZ Agency, participated in the preparation of measures, programmes and projects that are an integral part of the Strategy for 4 months.
The process of preparation the first framework of the Regional Development Strategy for the Central BiH region was conducted by the Delegation of the European Commission to BiH through the EURED project. The strategy was prepared and adopted by the Partner Group in 2004. Since the regional development strategy should be a “live” document, in cooperation with local partners, REZ Agency carried out the revision of the Regional Development Strategy in 2006 and completed the Strategy Implementation Framework 2006-2007. In order to ensure the continuity of the revision and upgrading process of the Regional Development Strategy, and thus ensure that the current measures, programs and projects are included in the Strategy, in the beginning of 2008 the REZ Agency started the process of updating the Regional Development Strategy for the Central BiH region for the period 2009-2015.
All 16 municipalities from the Central BiH region participated to the updating process, as well as two cantons, business associations and a large number of institutions from local communities and non-governmental organizations. The Regional Development Strategy aims to facilitate the faster development of the region.
