With the support of the action on “Accountability and professionalism of the judicial system in Montenegro“, the Center for mediation in Montenegro has prepared the Code of Ethics for mediators.

The mediators now have modern Code of Ethics, aligned with the European practice and standards for mediation which will be distributed to all licensed mediators in Montenegro.

According to the Report of the Center for Mediation for 2019, in total 150 licenced mediators in Montenegro were dealing with 1908 mediation cases last year and almost half of that number has had positive mediation outcome.
