The U.S. Department of State's Bureau of European and Eurasian Affairs awarded a $500,000 Project Grant to Atlantski Savez Crne Gore, a non-profit organization based in Podgorica, Montenegro, under the AEECA/ESF Public Diplomacy Programs (CFDA 19.900). The grant, awarded on September 30, 2024, is intended to reduce the ability of malign information influence activities to destabilize democratic processes and institutions in Montenegro. The organization will use the funding to build capacity for media and civil society entities to resist disinformation campaigns, develop strategies to identify and combat fake news, and protect democratic processes and institutions in Montenegro through interventions focused on media literacy, information verification, and civil society empowerment. The consistent funding from the Bureau of European and Eurasian Affairs demonstrates the U.S. government's sustained commitment to supporting Atlantski Savez Crne Gore's strategic efforts to maintain democratic integrity in Montenegro.
