The Academic Forum of Montenegro is a space for exchanging views on the university, higher education, science, innovation and socio-economic issues that matter to the academic professions.
We stand for university autonomy, meritocracy and democratic decision-making in educational institutions.
Initiative to Amend the Law on Higher Education
The essence of the Initiative is a direct and democratic election of the rector, in which the rector would be elected by members of the academic community: professors, researchers, teaching assistants, non-academic staff and students.
Its seventy proposers believe this model would be an important step towards democratisation, stronger autonomy for the academic community and less influence for informal interest groups within the higher education system.
Mobilising citizens who abstain from voting is one of the key challenges facing Montenegrin society, and overcoming it depends above all on whether there is a real alternative to the existing partitocratic system.
