Strengthening communication capacities of the High Prosecutorial Council of Serbia

Members and staff of the High Prosecutorial Council Council gathered in Divcibare in the two-day workshop on “Internal and external communication and media relations”. The workshop focused on enhancing capacities for effective, transparent and co-ordinated communication, both internally and with the public and media. Key topics included the legal framework for communication, transparency obligations, communication tools and channels, as well as strategic and proactive communication.

Through practical sessions, participants strengthened their skills in media engagement, drafting clear public messages and managing internal information flows. The workshop contributed to improving the Council’s communication practices, supporting greater transparency, accountability and public trust.

This event was organised within the framework of the Action “Strengthening legal culture in Serbia and capacities of the judicial and prosecutorial councils”, part of the joint European Union and Council of Europe programme “Horizontal Facility for the Western Balkans and Türkiye”, in co-operation with the High Prosecutorial Council. 

Work in this thematic area focuses on prisons and police (including human rights in policing, healthcare in prisons and safeguards against torture and ill-treatment), human rights standards in the judiciary (focusing on enhancing the application of case-law of the European Court of Human Rights), migration issues, the efficiency of justice systems (with a focus on analysing judicial statistics to optimise court administrations) and/or legal co-operation (which concentrates on increasing the individual independence of judges and prosecutors and the accountability of the judicial system).
