CONSULTANCY

SKRIPTA
Consulting

SKRIPTA works on public policy, governance and institutional reform, particularly where good solutions depend on understanding the political context, institutions, interests and how change actually happens.

Our experience has been built over more than two decades of work across public institutions, international programmes, research organisations and civil society — from strategic advisory and policy development to leading complex reform and research processes.

AREAS OF FOCUS

Our areas of work

Focus

Public administration, local government and decentralisation

More than two decades of experience in public administration reform, decentralisation and local governance, from policy and institutional design to support for implementation. Our work spans central and local levels of government, institutional strengthening, relations across levels of government, inter-municipal cooperation and capacity development for local communities, with experience in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Moldova, Ukraine, Serbia and beyond.

Focus

EU integration and international cooperation

Understanding European policies, institutions and reform processes, and translating them into domestic policy and practice. Our experience includes work with public institutions, international organisations, donors and European partners on reform, institutional development and EU integration.

Focus

Research, public policy and political economy

Public policy research, political economy and institutional analysis, needs and capacity assessments, comparative research and evaluation. A particular focus is on understanding what lies behind formal rules: power relations, institutional incentives, interests and political constraints that shape what is possible in practice.

Focus

Democracy, citizen participation and civil society

Democratic governance, political participation, institutional accountability, citizen engagement, advocacy and the role of civil society in shaping public policy. Our experience includes work with political actors, parliaments and public officials, strengthening the capacities of civil society organisations, and cooperation with local communities.

Focus

Gender equality and social inclusion

Integrating gender and inclusion perspectives into research, policies and programmes, including women’s political participation, social narratives, hate speech, advocacy and access to public policy for different social groups.

Focus

Digital government and GovTech

Connecting public policy, technology and user needs. Our experience includes the development and assessment of GovTech ecosystems, work on European innovation programmes, and support to the public sector in using digital solutions to address complex social and institutional challenges.

Focus

Strategy and organisational development

Strategic planning, organisational development, programme design, institutional learning and results monitoring. The focus is on ensuring that strategy does not remain a document, but becomes a basis for clearer decisions, better management and measurable impact.

Focus

International experience

Work in Bosnia and Herzegovina, across the Western Balkans, Moldova, Ukraine and Serbia, as well as with partners from Sweden, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, the United States and beyond. For us, international experience is not about transferring ready-made models, but about understanding what can be transferred, what needs to be adapted, and what will work only when it fits the local institutional and political context.
