• Supporting the modernisation of systems of governance  through the updating and development of local technical and administrative skills, the efficacy and effectiveness of public administrations; aiding administrative decentralisation, the organisation of institutions and their operative structures; strengthening respect for the rule of law and transparency in public forums; promoting the involvement of the local population and stakeholders.
• Promoting local sustainable development by capitalising on the resources, experience and historic-cultural heritage available locally; by programming development activities that respect the local territory and the renewability of its environmental resources; by championing human rights and liberties, participation and consensus, assuring equality and respect for different cultures and equal opportunity.
