Report on the Rapid Social Impact Assessment of the COVID-19 outbreak in Montenegro, April–June 2020

Rapid Social Impact Assessment has sought to identify potential new groups of people who have become highly vulnerable in the period from April to June 2020 due to the COVID-19 crisis. The RSIA is underpinned by national and international standards and commitments to human rights, refugee protection, and the “leave no-one behind” concept in line with Agenda 2030, in the response to COVID-19 in Montenegro. The report aims to provide the evidence for decision-makers to tailor ongoing and future policy and programmatic interventions to alleviate the negative consequences of the epidemic on the people of

Montenegro, with a particular focus on protecting the fundamental rights of those who are most vulnerable.
