Our partners

Inter-regional cooperation of the project participants will be institutionally covered by the following nonprofit organization (citizens' associations):

Center for democratic transition (CEDET) from Belgrade, Serbia,
Center for democracy and human rights (CEDEM) from Podgorica, Montenegro, and
Center for transition and civil society research (CTCSR) from Zagreb, Croatia.
Partnership authorization has been given to CEDET. CEDET is an applicant and the leading organization and will provide the management of the project. Partner organization will be - according to the active and interactive role of all project participants - equally involved in the project realization.

Reasons for the role of each partner:
Experts from CEDEM, Podgorica and from CENTER FOR TRANSITION AND CIVIL SOCIETY, Zagreb, participate from the beginning together with experts from CEDET, Belgrade in this project articulation. The common work of University professors from Serbia, Montenegro and Croatia is based on equal participation, on interactive, dialogue type, and open-minded work, on the principles of good partnership. Each project topic has been covered equally with Croatian and Yugoslav (either Serbian or Montenegrin, or the both) participant, in order to attain comparative analysis of transitional processes in Serbia, Montenegro and Croatia. Reasons for the common work of these partners are: comparative theoretical and empirical research, practical-political and policy making impact, educational and pedagogical impact, peace building in the Balkans region, affirmation of anti-nationalism by all project participants, promotion of Stability Pact and European integration in Serbia, Montenegro and Croatia.
A highly qualified, common-spirited, group of 37 University professors from Croatia, Serbia and Montenegro will work together on this Project. The research team will be divided into national sections (Croatia, Serbia and Montenegro). Each of these sections will have its coordinator, which will be in close touch with the Project leader. Members of national sections, dealing with the same area of research, will be also connected very closely. Other members and national sections will critically review particular results of each member and national section, so that each sub-project and the final comparative analysis should essentially represent an interactive and commonly gathered result.
The project coordinator will be Prof. Dragica Vujadinovic-Milinkovic. Country coordinators will be Prof. Lino Veljak (Croatia), Prof. Vladimir Goati (Serbia) and Prof. Veselin Pavicevic (Montenegro). There will be 37 members of the Project (4 coordinators, plus 33 participants: 17 from Croatia, 14 from Serbia, and 6 from Montenegro). There will be also some colleagues engaged - according to specific needs - for external contributions.
