The pre-application phase of the European Label of Governance Excellence (ELoGE) Program, developed by the Council of Europe and implemented in Türkiye by Argüden Governance Academy, has been successfully completed.
As a result of this process, municipalities that met the required criteria and qualified to advance to the next stage have been identified. These municipalities have demonstrated their commitment to good governance principles and have taken an important step forward towards obtaining the Label.
In the upcoming phase, municipalities will complete their self-assessment surveys and undergo a comprehensive evaluation that will also incorporate the perspectives of citizens and other stakeholders. This stage will enable municipalities to analyze their governance practices from both internal and external viewpoints.
ELoGE stands as a credible and prestigious Label across Europe in the field of good governance, contributing to the adoption of core principles such as transparency, accountability, participation, and effectiveness by local governments.
