Introduction
Country: Bosnia and Herzegovina
Description of the Assignment:
The Government of Sarajevo canton has initiated their activities on creation of the digital governance ecosystem, based both on policy/strategic framework, and development of digital products/infrastructure necessary for its full utilization, as stated in the Vision of the e-governance in Canton Sarajevo[1], which serves as the conceptual framework for the digital transformation agenda in Canton Sarajevo and was formally adopted by the Government in April 2021. Based on priorities identified on this document, UNDP worked closely with the Institute for Informatics and Statistics of Canton Sarajevo and Ministry of Justice and Administration of Canton Sarajevo on development of a custom โ made digital solution โ system for provision of e-services, titled โe-Uprava portalโ. The system is based on the modular infrastructure, and logics of building blocks, where each of the building blocks enable specific functionality of the system. Currently, the system is its final testing phase, and it is expected that the first version will be published by the end of 2024.
In parallel, the activities on assessment and streamlining of the relevant aspects of the strategic/policy framework took place, where initial assessment of the procedures, services and necessary legislative framework were created, as a baseline for development of interoperable digital solution. Furthermore, in 2024, the Ministry of Justice and Administration of Canton Sarajevo initiated design and development of the Law on Electronic Governance of the Canton of Sarajevo, which is in the process of adoption, and which regulates issues related to the establishment and functioning of the cantonal portal for the provision of services electronically by civil service bodies, public enterprises, public institutions, agencies, funds, institutes and other legal entities exercising public powers, whose founder is the Canton of Sarajevo. One of its key elements is the unique e-portal/digital platform of the Sarajevo Canton, which represents the backbone of a scalable, consolidated, interconnected digital administrative system, which enables real-time access to various data sets, enables data linking, analysis and visualization (including geospatial) and serves as a digital platform that offers the provision of e-services oriented to users: citizens and businesses.
Period of assignment/services (if applicable): February 2025 - June 2025 (maximum 45 working days).
