DIAGNOSIS ANALYSIS –THE FIRST STAGE IN DRAWING UP LOCAL STRATEGIES

The paper intends to present the manner in which the public services diagnosis is made, taking into consideration the complexity of its making. The making of the public services’ diagnosis is determined on one hand by the number and diversity of public services ensured by the local authorities, and on the other hand, by the extremely high number of service operators and also by the different forms of organization that these have. We consider that the best way to achieve the public service diagnosis is yet the consultation with the public opinion as a beneficiary of these services. We appreciate that the diagnosis analysis would not be finished if a general conclusion regarding the activity performed by the local communities were not made, a reason for which we recommend that each type of diagnosis made should be appreciated with ratings.
