The Civic Education Center (CGO) relaunches the action of collecting books to enrich the library of the Institute for the Execution of Criminal Sanctions (ZIKS).

The action will last until April 25th, and everyone who wants to donate books can do it at CGO's premises on Boulevard St. Peter Cetinjski 96, every working day from 8 to 5 p.m. or during street actions in Podgorica 20th April on the plateau in front of the National Library "Radosav Ljumovic" from 11 to 1 p.m.

This action is part of the project "Alternative sanctions - from punishment to reintegration", whose aim is to contribute to the improvement and protection of human and minority rights in Montenegro through the active participation of civil society organizations.

"Through the implementation of this action, CGO wants to change the paradigm of alternative criminal sanctions, re-socialization and reintegration of prisoners, so CGO volunteers will inform interested citizens about systems of criminal sanctions, focusing on alternative sanctions. By renewing the library fund in ZIKS, help will be provided to those who are serving time in prison, improve their quality of life, and under these conditions help them acquire some new knowledge and spend time more effectively. This could also reduce the recidivism and improve the re-socialization of the persons deprived of liberty," the CGO statement writes.

The project "Alternative sanctions - from punishment to reintegration" is implemented by the CGO in cooperation with the Institute for Legal Studies (IPLS), with the support of the Ministry of Justice.
