The project was implemented within the framework of the “Data for Accountable and Transparent Activity” (DATA) project with the support of the US Agency of International Development (USAID) by Eurasian Partnership Foundation and DATA project partners.

• Comprehensive research/analysis of the public procurement legislation, policies և implementation process;
• Development of policy reform proposal packages based on the analysis data;
• Advocacy for these proposals with the involvement of stakeholders, up to legislative and policy changes.
