Montenegro Gender Equality Profile

Gender equality is a fundamental human right and a key prerequisite for sustainable development and social justice. International frameworks and standards guide states towards establishing equal opportunities for women and men in all areas of social life. Montenegro, as a member of the United Nations and a candidate for European Union membership, recognizes the importance of these instruments and actively works on their implementation. Designed as a one stop repository, this platform brings together data, analysis, policy reviews, and sector-specific insights to support informed decision-making, advocacy, and action toward gender equality in the context of EU accession.

Montenegro Gender Equality Profile

The Montenegro Gender Equality Profile serves as a comprehensive knowledge and resource platform created to contribute to understanding and reducing gender inequalities across the country. The platform is designed as a central place for accessing information that brings together data, analyses, policy reviews, and sector-specific insights from a gender perspective.

Its goal is to bridge the gap between legal obligations and actual practice by providing accessible, evidence-based information on the state of gender equality in various areas — including governance, education, health, employment, agriculture, climate change, media, and other sectors.

By consolidating sex-disaggregated data, legislative analyses, institutional assessments, and thematic reports, the Gender Equality Profile becomes both a practical tool and a valuable resource for decision-makers, researchers, civil society, and the wider public. It enables meaningful, data-driven dialogue and supports the implementation of reforms that advance gender equality.

This resource highlights both achievements and challenges, and encourages a more inclusive, coordinated, and effective approach to achieving gender equality in Montenegro.
