The indicative Programme of Work (PoW) for 2025 supports the implementation of the new (draft) ReSPA Strategic Orientation 2025-2030. The present PoW is also the last annual programme that will contribute to the implementation of the 2023-2025 EC Grant Contract, which ReSPA will implement until the end of 2025. It provides an overview of the activities to be organized by the ReSPA Secretariat that will be implemented in 2025. However, the PoW is indicative of built-in agility to cater to emerging priorities, and activities will also be identified/further prioritized within the thematic groups, especially under the overall guidance and recommendations of the ReSPA Governing Board.

The indicative Programme of Work determines what will be accomplished to achieve the strategic goal: enhance regional administrative capacity and foster collaborative networks among Western Balkans public administrations to drive effective Public Administration Reform and align with European integration standards. ReSPA will support human resource development, facilitate knowledge-sharing, and promote structured exchanges with EU Member States, ensuring the region's administrations are equipped to meet European governance principles and standards. The PoW contains a division into 4 Thematic Areas, as envisaged in the ReSPA Strategic Orientation 2025-2030, as well as a horizontal pillar, which includes the so-called "horizontal regional activities and priority actions".

Additional activities will be implemented through the ReSPA mechanisms of direct support to its members, such as on-demand support mechanisms, e-gov pilots and mobility schemes. In addition, the "ReSPA Horizontal Facility" will enable the co-design of capacity-building programmes with Institutes of Public Administration from the EU, regional partners and other international actors. Online conversations on various topics related to reforming PA will also be organized throughout the year.
