Macedonian citizens see the future of the country as being a member of the EU forcing the government to seriously work in meeting the requirements set by the European Commission. In this respect there are two risks: (i) much of the current policies are transferred from EU legislation without necessary adaptation to Macedonian circumstances; and (ii) the reforms are designed, adopted and implemented without much consultation with stakeholders. Therefore, independent non-state actors with expertise in policy analysis are highly needed to invigorate policy debates, influence the policy agenda, offer policy options adequate to Macedonian circumstances based on evidence, open the policy making process to stakeholders and monitor the implementation of the policies evaluating the degree of public value they generate. Using policy research methodology CRPM gathers evidence and knowledge, analyzes and offers policy options to the government, local self-government, civil and private sector on all current Macedonian and European developments.
