Urban Transformation Sarajevo (UTPS)
The four-year Urban Transformation Project Sarajevo (2021-2025) aims to support the modernisation of the integrated urban planning system in Sarajevo Canton, and the creation of better conditions for sustainable climate resilient socio-economic.
The project is funded by the Swiss Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO). This project initiative corresponds with Switzerland's foreign policy strategy (2020-2023). It is a part of Switzerland's traditional support for the transition of BiH to a socially inclusive market economy, decentralised political system, and European integrations.
The overall goal of the new Swiss Cooperation Program for BH (2021-2024) is that all citizens in Bosnia and Herzegovina actively engage in shaping the government policies created through an inclusive, active approach. Citizens should influence public policies and achieve more significant benefits from public services. The approach is especially applicable in creating an urban environment and living in cities.
Also, the SECO’s Infrastructure Financing Division (WEIN) has a long tradition of working in urban areas, aiming to strengthen urban and economic infrastructure.
