LEARNING TOPICS AND PROPOSED ACTIVITIES. The Project sets long-term learning objectives, which could be easily broken down into more tangible, annual objectives. The activities will be revised every year according to current learning needs, ensuring that proper challenges are addressed. The Project implementation plan includes a total of 36 activities over four years or 8 - 10 per year8. By targeting a diverse and broad audience, the Project enables cooperation and coordination among relevant public officials. It also envisages strong cooperation between experts from international and regional institutions in the events’ preparation and delivery phase. To enhance the impact of learning, increase the value of gained knowledge, and consequently strengthen tax institutions' resilience and efficiency, the Project envisages continuous professional development of public officials. It will be achieved by encouraging officials to apply for learning activities from three learning topics: supportive public revenue ecosystem, improved tax systems, and learning and knowledge ecosystems. Supportive public revenue ecosystem The public revenue ecosystem consists of various actors that impact the collection and use of public revenues and collaboration among them. Mobilization of these stakeholders is crucial for improving public revenues, in particular high-level public officials that the Project will target. Collaboration with this group is critical, as, without its support, efforts to improve public revenues may not succeed. Policymakers and public officials are responsible for implementing necessary changes in the public finance system. Project activities will address designing medium-term revenue strategies as they are comprehensive plans for tax reform that aim to increase tax revenues and improve the tax system over the medium term. They will also provide support to implementing countries’ tax education and literacy programs as an expansion of the existing programs run by central banks and ministries of finance, and explore how to establish tax academies, similar to those existing in the EU member countries.
