Through our three types of partnerships – governance, donor and knowledge-sharing related partnerships–we achieve interconnected goals: good governance that encourages inclusive and collaborative environment and helps us achieve our mandate, sustainable financing and diversification of donors, and promotion of regional and global expertise that contributes to the relevance and ownership of our learning and networking program. Our partners’ roles are in many instances overlapping and may cover one or more modes of cooperation with the CEF. Each partnership has its own unique elements; all are driven by the impact that we generate together in pursuing common goals for our constituency.

We cooperate with a wide range of institutions and experts:

• International financial institutions: IMF, The World Bank, European Investment Bank
• Global and regional international organizations: European Commission, Regional Cooperation Council (RCC), OECD Sigma, Regional Anti-Corruption Initiative (RAI)
• Peer institutions: Regional School for Public Administration (ReSPA)
• Networks: Learn4Dev, Knowledge Management Global Network (KMGN), Global Society for Organizational Learning
• Professional organizations: Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy (CIPFA)
• Academia and think tanks: University of Ljubljana, School of Economics and Business, Overseas Development Institute (ODI)
• Experts and practitioners from central banks, tax administrations, ministries of finance, line ministries, and other public institutions
• Governments in their capacities of donors and implementors of official development assistance: Ministry of Finance of Slovakia, Ministry of Finance of Slovenia, Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs of Slovenia, Banka Slovenije, Ministry of Finance of the Netherlands, Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ).
