Montenegro country study published

A new TRIALOG country study has been published, this time on the situation faced by civil society organisations in Montenegro. The report was written for TRIALOG by Maša Lekić, a recent intern from Montenegro who spent five months in the TRIALOG office in Brussels.

The report covers the history, development and main areas of work covered by civil society in the country. The challenges that must still be faced are outlined, including low administrative capacity, low levels of public trust and the need for improved relations between the NGO community and the government. It concludes that despite the relative short history of NGOs in the country, civil society has already started to exert a considerable influence within Montenegro.
