Montenegro-based centre for international projects, partnerships and implementation

Adriatic Bridge is an association in Podgorica. We work with organisations in Montenegro, the EU and Türkiye — from the first idea to the closure of a project.

EU programmes

Two EU programmes with different purposes and rules. We check each idea against the official documents before we recommend it.

Erasmus+

The EU programme for education, training, youth and sport: learning mobility, cooperation partnerships and capacity building.

  • Mobility and hosting
  • Cooperation partnerships
  • Capacity building (VET, higher education, youth)
Erasmus+ in detail

Horizon Europe

The EU framework programme for research and innovation. Montenegro is associated to Horizon Europe, so Montenegrin organisations can take part on the same terms as those in EU Member States.

  • Research and innovation projects
  • International consortia and work packages
  • Instruments for SMEs and innovators
Horizon Europe in detail

The EU flag identifies the programmes. Adriatic Bridge is an independent association; it is not an EU body and is not funded, approved or accredited by the European Union.

Working principles

  1. 01

    Confidentiality

    Project ideas and documents are shared only with your consent.

  2. 02

    Written responsibilities

    Roles, tasks and fees are agreed in writing before work starts.

  3. 03

    Financial transparency

    Budgets and costs are planned openly and follow the programme rules.

  4. 04

    Checked partners

    We research partners before we propose them.

  5. 05

    Project for your organisation

    No copy-paste applications: each project is built for its organisation.

  6. 06

    Real needs

    Projects start from documented needs, not from available money.

  7. 07

    Measurable results

    Objectives and results are defined so that they can be measured.

Impact indicators we will track

We publish no figures yet. These are the indicators we will measure and report once projects are under way.

  • Needs analyses completed
  • Applications submitted and their outcomes
  • Partnerships formed and how long they last
  • Participants hosted and their feedback
  • Reports delivered on time

Cooperation

Write to us — we reply in English, Montenegrin, Turkish or German. The first conversation is free and confidential.
