## What the grant funds

This project will work towards improving the justice sector by better preparing the cadre of future judges and prosecutors for the actual work of their professions. This project will take the first step in Law School education reform by identifying the exact areas where the current curricula are lacking and providing those skills and education through direct training of law students and judicial apprentices. The project vision is in line with the Functional Bureau Strategy, specifically with Bureau Goal 2: Combat corruption and illicit financing to strengthen democratic institutions, advance rule of law, and reduce transnational crime and its enablers, and Goal 3: Strengthen criminal justice systems to support stable, rights-respecting partners, as well as Bureau Objective 3.1: Foundational elements of foreign criminal justice systems are able to address shared threats, promote human rights, and provide fair and equal justice to all citizens. The project will also support ICS Goal 1: Strengthen democracy and rule of law to advance Serbia’s European integration.
