New partnership in Montenegro: Municipality of Pljevlja Joins the Empowered WB Project

The Empowered – Inclusion of Persons with Disabilities in the Western Balkans project has marked another important milestone in Montenegro! Alfa Centar Nikšić, the national project partner, proudly signed a cooperation agreement with the Municipality of Pljevlja, further expanding the project’s reach and local engagement.

This partnership was formalized during an initial meeting with Mr. Darijo Vraneš, President of the Municipality of Pljevlja, and Mr. Vojin Striković, Advisor to the President of the Municipality of Nikšić. The meeting reflected strong institutional support and readiness to improve conditions for persons with disabilities (PwDs) in local communities.

The inclusion of Nikšić and Pljevlja in this €3.3 million regional initiative is a significant step toward strengthening social inclusion and employability for PwDs throughout the Western Balkans.

With this agreement now signed, the foundation is set for the successful implementation of activities that will bring tangible results and long-term impact.

This cooperation not only enhances local capacities but also reinforces the shared vision of empowered, inclusive communities across the region.
