Sources: 7. Developments: 2. The Sarajevo Canton has initiated a series of administrative and financial reforms aimed at improving governance and institutional accountability. In late September 2026, the Ministry of Justice and Administration introduced draft laws to reorganize the relationship between the Canton, the City of Sarajevo, and six specific municipalities: Stari Grad, Centar, Novo Sarajevo, Novi Grad, Ilidža, and Vogošća. Supported by the OSCE, this administrative reform seeks to better manage shared public services such as transport, water supply, and waste removal. Following this, the Canton announced a transition to program-based budgeting. This financial reform shifts the focus from total expenditure to measurable outcomes and performance indicators in sectors like healthcare and education. To support this, the Ministry of Finance is upgrading its Oracle ERP Cloud system, with full implementation expected to begin in late 2026 and early 2027. ## Timeline ### 2026-10-05: Sarajevo Canton introduces program-based budgeting reform Sarajevo Canton is introducing program-based budgeting to link public spending to specific objectives and measurable results, aiming to improve transparency and align with European financial practices. 3 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/sarajevo-canton-introduces-program-based-budgeting-reform ### 2026-09-23: Sarajevo proposes administrative reform for six municipalities Sarajevo Canton has proposed administrative reforms to reorganize the City of Sarajevo into a unified urban entity comprising six municipalities to improve public service delivery. 6 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/sarajevo-proposes-administrative-reform-for-six-municipalities --- Cite as: Sarajevo Canton administrative and financial reforms.
