This project contributes to strengthening national efforts towards the sustainable reintegration, integration, and protection of vulnerable groups in Montenegro, with a focus on readmitted nationals and victims of trafficking (Vo Ts). The project will focus on enhancing national institutions' capacities to provide integrated reintegration assistance to readmitted nationals, in line with IOM's Handbook on Reintegration and based on the integrated approach to reintegration. The project will also seek to improve the overall provision of identification, protection, and (re)integration assistance to VoTs in Montenegro, through a set of trainings targeting senior frontline actors as well as local level ones. Capacity building planned under both outcomes will include a protection against sexual exploitation and abuse (PSEA) module, which will raise awareness amongst national institutions. Importantly, national stakeholders have not received trainings of this kind thus far, therefore this project envisaged a strong capacity building on PSEA as to ensure that effective systems are in place for preventing and responding to acts of sexual exploitation and abuse among both identified groups. This will further contribute to mainstreaming gender considerations in this domain of work.
