The two-day workshop, aimed at raising the awaraness of NPOs on risks related to terrorist financing and mitigation of those risks, took place in Belgrade on 30 November and 1 December.
The workshop featured presentations of representatives of state institutions – Ministry of Human and Minority Rights and Social Dialogue and Financial Intelligence Unit, on current state of affairs and risks identified by the sectorial risk assessment conducted at the national level in 2021, as well as the presentations of the Council of Europe experts on internationally known money laundering and terrorist financing risks, and the importance of recognising risks related to the internal governance structures, as well as among employees, donors, volunteers and partners of the NPOs.
The focus of the workshop was placed on the practical sessions during which the representatives of NPO organisations were involved in guided work on assessing their own risks using self-assessment questionnaires, developing risk matrices, identifying their levels of risk exposure and drafting of risk-mitigation plans. The workshop has been attended by 15 NPOs from the regions of Southwest Serbia and Belgrade. Each of the NPOs left the workshop with an outline of self-risk assessment and an action plan, which can be applied to strengthen their resilience to abuse.
The activity has taken place within the Project “Preventing Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing in Serbia”, funded by the Swedish International Development Agency, and implemented by the Council of Europe.
