On 15 November 2024, the German Ambassador Peter opened a round table in Podgorica, which the IRZ organised in cooperation with the Montenegrin Ministry for Human and Minority Rights and the three non-governmental organisations Juventas, Queer Montenegro and Spektra on the planned implementing provisions for the law on same-sex partnerships. The event was part of the activities organised by IRZ in the Western Balkans on the priority and cross-cutting issue of ‘human rights’. The Italian ambassador, representatives of the French, British and Dutch embassies and of the UN delegation also took part.

The discussions between the representatives of various ministries, non-governmental organisations, academia and the ombudsman were extremely intensive. In addition, the Ministry for Human and Minority Rights presented a plan for further action in preparing the implementing regulations.
