A Memorandum of Understanding was signed this week by the Director General for DG Education and Culture, Mrs Odile Quintin and Montenegro's Ambassador to the EU, Ms Slavica Milačić, clearing the way for Montenegro to join European cultural cooperation in the framework of the Culture Programme 2007-2013.
From 2010 onwards European operators can look forward to cooperating with Montenegrin partners, whose rich cultural heritage ensures ample opportunities for fruitful projects. The Culture Programme is the first of the Community programmes that Montenegro, gaining its independence in 2006, participates in. Montenegro becomes the third country from the Western Balkans to participate in the programme, followed by Croatia (joined in 2007) and Serbia (in 2008).
