On 16 and 17 September, Podgorica hosted the conference on “Engagement and Strengthening of Parliament Through Openness and Transparency”, part of the “Open Government Partnership” programme supported by 64 states, Republic of Serbia among them.


The main topic of the conference attended by parliamentarians and representatives of the non-governmental sector from South-East European countries was the exchange of experience and best practice aimed toward strengthening the parliament’s role and cooperation and communication with the citizens and non-governmental organisations.

Deputy Speaker Marinkovic spoke at the panel debate on the relationship between the National Assembly of the Republic of Serbia and NGOs. He presented the National Assembly’s activities focusing on its organization of public hearings on current social issues in cooperation with the NGOs and pointing out the need to intensify said cooperation especially in the fight against corruption, control of public spending and sustainable development. He also announced stepping up the engagement within the “Open Government Partnership” programme which could prove greatly beneficial for the process of strengthening democracy, institutions and the state’s relationship with the citizens in their best interest.
