The Superior Courts Network has become a cornerstone of judicial dialogue, fostering subsidiarity and cooperation among national superior courts and the European Court of Human Rights. This close collaboration benefits the action “Strengthening accountability of the judicial system and enhancing protection of victims’ rights in Montenegro”, by enhancing judicial capacities and promoting better implementation of human rights standards.
