Given their scope and multi-sector approach, Regional Development Strategy and Smart Specialisation Strategy (S3) can also be regarded as umbrella strategy papers.
Sector-based strategy papers are policy papers elaborating further the priorities set in the umbrella strategy papers.
These include strategies and programmes developed within seven policy areas:
A strategy paper is a tool used to shape and guide the developments in the given policy area, identify challenges, set goals, propose activities, together with the financial and staffing resources needed for its implementation.
The strategic planning system in Montenegro is based on the Decree on Methodology and Procedure for Drafting, Aligning and Monitoring the Implementation of Strategy Documents, which lays out the minimum quality criteria for all strategy documents adopted by the Government of Montenegro.
The national policy planning system distinguishes between the umbrella and sector-based strategy papers.
This is an informal forum chaired by the Government’s Secretariat General, with representatives of all line ministries involved in drafting strategy papers as its members.
The aim of the Network is to actively foster inter-agency cooperation, coordination of actions and improvements to the strategic planning system recognising the challenges different departments face in implementing strategy papers.
Through its work, the Network helps upgrade the quality of strategy papers in Montenegro and the thorough preparation of civil servants in this area.
The Network is a platform for sharing experiences, knowledge and skills helping to build the spirit of joint contribution to the strategic planning system as such.
This is the first accredited, licenced and systemic training programme in Montenegro for building the capacities of civil servants for strategic planning, implemented jointly by the Government’s Secretariat General and the Human Resources Management Administration (HRMA), which leads to the acquisition of 6 ECTS credits.
The Training Programme aims to establish a uniform approach to policy planning and development and building the capacities of the civil servants taking part in the strategic planning exercises, focusing on proper implementation of the new planning framework.
The Training Programme focuses on developing proper and hands-on skills for drafting strategy papers to be conducive to increased public administration efficiency in a transparent, accountable and sustained manner.
The Training Programme encompasses both theoretical inputs and practical work on developing sample strategy papers, and is split into 6 modules delivered by national and international experts. Following successful completion of the Cycle 1 delivered in 2018/2019, a new generation of 40 participants are attending the modules in 2019/2020.
The “Strengthening capacities for the acceleration of EU accession of Montenegro” project is funded by the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and implemented by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP).
