The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), in collaboration with the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) and the Regional Youth Cooperation Office (RYCO), has published the study “Shared Futures: Youth Perceptions on Peace in the Western Balkans.”
For the purposes of this study, a regional survey involving more than 5,400 young people was conducted, and DeFacto Consultancy conducted data collection for Montenegro.
“Shared Futures” is part of the project “Supporting the Western Balkans’ Collective Leadership on Reconciliation,” which aims to build capacity and create momentum for RYCO in empowering young people to participate in decision-making processes that affect their lives. It also aims to strengthen young people’s ability to contribute to building and maintaining safe and peaceful environments for themselves and their communities.
