Programme Description. The Department of Human settlements is currently embarking on a scheme to develop a number of catalytic housing projects. These projects are specifically aimed at addressing the housing backlog and to speed up the rate at which housing opportunities are delivered. With catalytic projects, the Department of Human Settlements (DHS) seeks to drastically reduce the number of projects by shifting their focus to large-scale developments. This will permit municipalities to address apartheid spatial planning and integrate development nodes within their municipal boundaries. Such projects will promote sustainable human settlements as opposed to the provision of housing. Catalytic housing projects differ from mega housing projects, as the focus is on creating sustainable human settlements, which has a variety of usages and are not only restricted to housing. Catalytic projects will consist of mixed usage spaces (commercial, residential and retail), which allow resident to work, participate in recreational activities and live in a single area. There are currently 48 catalytic projects in development, which will aim to provide 635 000 housing opportunities across the country by 2019. The construction sector is labour-intensive, currently accounts for about 2% of GDP, and is receptive to both local content requirements and the participation of SMMEs, women-owned enterprises and worker co-operatives. Consequently, social partners have agreed to a number of interventions to leverage growth of the construction sector so as to meet social and economic imperatives. • Government will contribute approximately R4bn to an Infrastructure Fund which will be used to stimulate economic growth and ensure improved household access to adequate housing in integrated human settlements; • The Infrastructure Fund will be leveraged to: Reduce the time required for housing project implementation; Reduce the risks for private-sector investment and thereby ‘crowd in’ private-sector commitments; • Government will seek investment partnerships with the private-sector to drive spatial transformation an improve socio-economic sustainability of these communities; and, • Government will investigate ways to strengthen local procurement and facilitate the emergence of SMMEs, women-owned enterprises and worker enterprises (including co-operatives) within these projects. • Government must release 7,400 hectares of well-located State-owned land and properties to encourage investment and partnership oppor...

Programme Description. The 2004 programme has been designed following the set of projects jointly defined by the partner countries and approved at the Joint Cooperation Committee meeting in Sofia, on 14 July 2004. To concretely face the two challenges of fragmented economy and of the depopulation trends one of the main goals of this project is the building of a local institutional capacity in the region, both at regional and local levels. The rationale behind the present project is to intervene on the local actors’ attitude for cross-border co-operation and in promoting joint actions towards the socio-economic cohesion throughout the whole border area. The strengthening of local capacities in project generation, management and administration is a prerequisite for the success of the NP, thus equalising capacities in institutions and administrations from both sides of the borders as well as in creating a common methodological framework for further joint cross border actions (designing of a common development strategies, acquiring skills for management of common projects, establishing joint communication strategies towards actors outside the border area, etc). The project will be implemented in the form of a grant scheme, while the support granted will be focused on areas/spheres of co-operation in which regions, municipalities, local development organisations and other social-economic partners should have expertise and experience. In particular this will include the eligible spheres of co-operation as set out below:

Programme Description. The 2004 programme has been designed following the set of projects jointly defined by the partner countries and approved at the Joint Cooperation Committee meeting in Sofia, on 13 July 2004. The border area between Bulgaria and the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia is homogeneous from natural, geographical and environmental point of view and similarities can be highlighted also from the economic and cultural points of view. The general level of environmental pollution within the cross-border programming region is rather low, partially due to the decrease in recent years of heavy industry and it is renowned both for its favourable, diverse and well-preserved nature and for relevant historical and cultural heritage. Furthermore, existing potentials and resources are not yet sufficiently exploited and in this context, activities addressed to the protection of the biodiversity and valorisation of cultural resources will have direct impact on the social and economic development level of the area. A significant challenge for the joint management of nature and culture endowments is the reconciling of stakeholder interests into a coherent, comprehensive management plans, integrating nature conservation objectives with sustainable local socio- economic development and environmental clean-up plans and programmes, and tangible benefits for the local people. Both Bulgaria and the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia are currently building up the experience for such integrated management, for the benefit of both the people and the nature. The aim of the Grant Scheme is to support those activities that are targeted at setting the basis for improvement of nature/culture management and future investment actions, by means of institutional building for the preparation of projects and adoption of participative approach in the decision making process The following activities will be eligible under the Grant Scheme (a detailed list of eligible activities will be developed in the “Guidelines for Applicants” that will precisely define all rules on the functioning of the GS):
