The Democratic Resilience initiative contributes to the development of a more resilient democratic society. This is done through supporting and encouraging political parties to demonstrate behaviour that ensures dialogue, proper functioning, and equal representation as preconditions for democratic practices, both internally and externally. Specifically, the programme focuses on the following objectives: 

•Political parties enhance accountability, transparency and inclusivity; 
•Increased ability of women’s wings to influence the democratic process within their parties through tools and evidence; 
•Women politicians actively contribute to the country’s political life, creating a better climate for inclusivity.

WFD also addresses violence against women in politics (VAWP) through our work with the Women MP’s Club in the Parliament. This is achieved by supporting the development of their Action plan, facilitating their engagement with women from political parties, and working on developing mechanisms that will offer support to victims of violence. 
 

The objective of this programme is to enhance the efficiency and accountability in the use of public resources in Montenegro by strengthening the roles of key stakeholders within the governance framework. This initiative seeks to strengthen the oversight capabilities of the Parliament of Montenegro while simultaneously reinforcing the internal mechanisms of the State Audit Institution (SAI). We aim to foster greater collaboration between these institutions. The strategy involves the implementation of tailored activities designed specifically for these primary actors, as well as promoting better working relationships among them.
