On 3^rd and 4^th  October 2019 Ms. Vladan Joksimovic – Head of RAI Secretariat and Ms. Desislava Gotskova- Project Manager of Regional Anti-Corruption Project, together with Mr. Aleksa Ivanovic – the project national coordinator for Montenegro, visited the Centre for Training in Judiciary and State Prosecution to present and deliver the Handbook on Effective Asset Recovery in Compliance with European and International Standards and Tools and Best Practices for International Asset Recovery Cooperation Handbook. The handbooks aim to support and encourage prosecutors, judges and practitioners from Western Balkan region who work in the field of asset recovery to apply in practice the existing asset recovery legislation, tools and mechanisms.

The publications have also been presented to Mr. Fabrizio Fantini and Ms. Maria Grazia Benedetti – the EUROL II Project Team Leaders. Possibilities for future cooperation have been discussed during the meeting.

Both publications have been developed and published within the framework of a 2-year regional project “Strengthening anti-corruption in the South East Europe through improving asset recovery measures” which is implemented by the Advice on Individual Rights in Europe (the AIRE Centre) and the Regional Anticorruption Initiative (RAI). The project is funded by the UK Government.
