The UN Socio-economic Response Plan to COVID-19 in Montenegro

The UN’s Socio-Economic Response Plan to COVID-19 for Montenegro has been prepared by a core team of UN staff and approved by the UN Country Team (UNCT) of Montenegro. The plan sets out the context, needs and recommended approach and follows the UN framework for the immediate socio-economic response to COVID-19.

There are five key pillars to the UN’s offer of support to Montenegro to mitigate the impacts of the COVID-19 crisis and support the recovery sustainably in the medium- to long-term:

I. Health Strengthening

II. Social Protection and Services

III. Economic Response and Recovery — protecting jobs, SMEs and informal sector workers

IV. Macroeconomic response and multi-lateral collaboration

V. Social cohesion and community resilience.
