We will continue to work for effective results, as citizens’ trust is our priority,” said head of the tender department of Mariupol City Council Mykhailo Ivchenko.

The study is based on responses to information requests sent to the city authorities, surveys and communication with representatives of city authorities and the city council, verification of compliance with the open data standard, analysis of the website, online statistics, citizens’ complaints, media data etc.
