The Director of the Agency, Dejan Damjanović, who also serves as the Head of the Delegation of the Republic of Serbia, and Bojana Smartek, Acting Assistant Director in the Sector for Integrity and Anti-Corruption Education, participated in the 100th Plenary Meeting of the Group of States against Corruption of the Council of Europe (GRECO), which was held in Strasbourg from June 3 to 6, 2025.

The Plenary Meeting reviewed compliance reports related to the prevention of corruption and the promotion of integrity in central government authorities and law enforcement agencies for Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Malta, Romania, the Slovak Republic, and Spain, as well as compliance reports on recommendations for the prevention of corruption among parliamentarians, judges, and prosecutors for Ireland and Switzerland.

In addition, an ad hoc report on the Slovak Republic was considered, in accordance with Rule 34 of GRECO’s Rules of Procedure.

A side event was also held under the title “Transition from the Fifth to the Sixth Evaluation Round and Cooperation with Non-Governmental Organizations,” with the participation of GRECO members and civil society representatives. The event aimed to reflect on the lessons learned from the Fifth Evaluation Round and to explore priority areas and topics where corruption prevention and integrity promotion are particularly important at the subnational level for the Sixth Round. This provided an opportunity for national and international NGOs active in the fight against corruption to exchange views, share their experiences, and discuss how they can contribute to GRECO’s work.
