Today, in the municipality of Bailundo, the Citizen Consultation Forum was held, a crucial event for citizen participation and transparency in public management. Chaired by the Deputy Administrator for the Financial Area, the forum was attended by several representatives, including the Director of GEPE.
During the event, the Director of GEPE presented a detailed report on the level of implementation of the 2023 projects. The analysis revealed that many of the priorities identified by the citizens were not implemented, mainly due to the alleged lack of resources. This situation has caused great demotivation among those present, highlighting the urgent need for better management and allocation of resources to meet the demands of the community.
The forum provided an important space for citizens to express their concerns and suggestions, reinforcing PASCAL’s commitment to promoting participatory and transparent governance.
Key points of the forum:
- Transparency and accountability: The GEPE presentation highlighted the challenges faced in implementing priority projects.
- Challenges in resource allocation: The lack of resources was a central point of discussion, highlighting the need for more effective financial management strategies.
- Active community participation: Residents had the opportunity to share their frustrations and proposals, emphasizing the importance of ongoing dialogue between the administration and the community.
This event reinforces PASCAL’s mission to foster citizen participation and strengthen local structures for more inclusive and efficient governance. The search for joint solutions and transparency in administration are essential to rebuilding public trust and engagement.
