How can countries design national governance structures for the implementation of the EU missions? MLE’s recommendations for overcoming governance resistance to the EU missions
date: 12/02/2024
The first thematic report from the MLE on the EU missions offers a fresh perspective on designing national governance structures for the implementation of EU missions. It highlights the need for a tailored approach, adapting governance to different Mission types and development phases, rather than a that a one-size-fits-all strategy. The report recognises potential barriers of government resistance which may hinder progress and provides a set of recommendations to navigate these challenges. Countries can benefit from pre-existing structures but also experience resistance to change. MLE experts recommend strengthening governance capacities, capabilities, skills and incentive structures to deliver on missions.
