Background
Partnerships designed, initiated and implemented by local actors can help the state to implement
modern and efficient public employment measures. Bottom-up, even small-scale initiatives have
proven to have significant role in alleviating impacts of economic crises and fast changes in the labour
market.
Montenegro is aware of the great potential the various local level institutions and organisations can
bring in addressing the needs of labour market and unemployed. The training is therefore part of a
wider policy to engage local level, including both state and non-state actors, in solving labour market
issues in Montenegro.
