UNDP’s operations in Montenegro focus on the country’s key priorities linked to EU accession, bringing in best international practices and facilitating the engagement of civil society. UNDP promotes evidence based policy making, provides advocacy support, technical assistance, access to knowledge, innovation and expertise, as well as coordination support to the Government. Our comparative advantages in accelerating Montenegro’s sustainable human development stem from our impartiality and global presence, as well as from our successful track record in helping the country attract and use development assistance effectively. UNDP operating within the framework of UN Delivering as One strives to further contribute to UN coherence in the country according to the Joint UN Integrated Framework for the period 2012-2016.

Our partners in Montenegro are the Government and key line ministries, local self-governments, specialized institutions, international organizations, academia, private sector and a number of non-governmental and civil society organizations.

We contributed to successful results through excellent cooperation and financial support from the Government of Montenegro as well as governments of Norway, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Sweden and Denmark; the EU Delegation to Montenegro; the European Commission; the OSCE Mission to Montenegro; the Global Environment Facility (GEF), the Global Fund to Fight Aids, Tuberculosis and Malaria (GFATM), the EC SEESAC Programme and the Multi Donor Trust Fund.
