One of the biggest steps in attracting investments is establishing of the Free Zone in Priboj. In this regard Priboj has already been recognized as a reliable partner by foreign companies, because the local government is the main initiator of economic development, choosing investors with sustainable and innovative investments. Over the recent years, municipality of Priboj has significantly changed its image in terms of market competitiveness and attracting foreign investments, which will have a direct impact on reducing unemployment. Future partners are offered significant facilities in which they can do their business using preferential customs regime and quick and efficient paperwork.

Serbia: Biomass Heating Plant –
Serbia: Biomass heating plant – construction starts in September Preliminary works on the construction of a biomass heating plant in Priboj will start in August, while construction works are scheduled to start on 10 September, said Deputy Mayor of Priboj Sasa Vasilic after the meeting with the contractor. The project also includes reconstruction of the heating pipeline and heating substations, according to Vasilic. The tender for the latter has yet to be published. In April, local company Energotehnika has been selected as a contractor to replace the equipment of the heating plant in Priboj in order to enable the switch from fossil fuel to biomass. The works are expected to start in autumn and should last one year, thus enabling the city to enter 2021/22 heating season with environmentally friendly district heating system. Last September, the municipality of Priboj signed an agreement on a full reconstruction of the district heating system with the Serbian Ministry of Energy and the German Development Bank KfW. The agreement is related to the construction of 8 MW biomass-powered heating plant, which, along with the municipality of Mali Zvornik, will be the first case of fossil fuels being fully replaced with biomass in Serbia. The project also envisages a full reconstruction of the heating pipeline system in Priboj and the construction of new substations. The agreement is worth 6 million euros, of which 16.5 % is financed by the Governments of Germany and Switzerland, while the rest is covered by a long-term loan from KfW, with the minimum interest rate of 1.1 % and a grace period of two years. -

Press Release
PRESS RELEASE 3 million dinars for support to farmers from the municipality of Prijepolje Prijepolje, June 7th, 2021 – The Ana and Vlade Divac Foundation, Prijepolje Municipality, and Zlatibor Regional Development Agency today signed an agreement that officially launched the 2021 Prijepolje Agriculture Development Fund. This innovative funding vehicle is supported by the USAID Competitive Economy Project. Prijepolje is the second municipality in the Zlatibor District, after Čajetina, to set up a farming development fund. The fund’s purpose is to provide multi-annual assistance to local farmers, with a total of 3 million dinars in capital provided by the Prijepolje local government and the Ana and Vlade Divac Foundation. “This is an innovative model that will allow the Fund to be used in a revolving arrangement to incentivize farmers from the area. The Municipality of Prijepolje will subsidize 30 percent of the incentives in the first year of the contract, while the remaining funds will be repaid by the beneficiaries, free of interest, on a schedule of 10 percent in the first year and 30 percent each in the second and third year of the contract”, said Vladimir Babić, Mayor of Prijepolje. Aleksandar Pavlović, Chief of Party of the USAID Competitive Economy Project, highlighted the difficulties faced by small-scale, traditional farmers in getting the finance they needed for initial investment into expanding and improving their production, even though the Serbia could boast a wide range of subsidies and loans. “This is exactly the issue these alternative types of revolving support extended by local governments and other partners are designed to address. -

736 KB ABD Programme for Drina-Tara Region
ABD PROGRAMME FOR “DRINA-TARA” REGION Final Draft SKOPJE April, 2014 The project is financed by the European Union “This document has been produced with the financial assistance of the European Union. The contents of this document are the sole responsibility of the Regional Rural Development Standing Working Group in South-East Europe (SWG) and can under no circumstances be regarded as reflecting the position of the European Union” ABD Programme for Drina-Tara Region Page 1 INTRODUCTION Area-Based Development (ABD) approach is targeting specific geographical areas characterised by a particular complex development problem (setting it apart from surrounding areas), through an integrated (multi-sector), inclusive (community versus particular groups or individuals), participatory (bottom-up) and flexible (responsive to changes) approach (Harfst, 2006). There are four main situations where the ABD approach has been employed b UNDP: post-conflict, poverty, exclusion, and disaster; these categories are in practice closely connected. Such development approach, as well as similar ones, finds theoretical roots within the endogenous development theory where improvements of the socioeconomic situation can best be brought by recognising and valuing the collective resources of the territory. Over the past decade, ABD has been applied in several parts of the Western Balkans (e.g. Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia, FYROM, Kosovo and Serbia). Most programmes were implemented in a post-conflict setting, and all scanned programmes had an infrastructure and socio-economic development component. However, the review of ABD programme components and scope in the Western Balkans reflects that ABD interventions have addressed neither rural development, nor cross-border cooperation in the Western Balkans, at least not explicitly. -

Sandzak – a Region That Is Connecting Or Dividing Serbia and Montenegro?
SANDZAK – A REGION THAT IS CONNECTING OR DIVIDING SERBIA AND MONTENEGRO? Sandzak is a region that is divided among Serbia and Montenegro. Six municipalities are in Serbia (Novi Pazar, Sjenica, Tutin, Prijepolje, Priboj and Nova Varoš) and six in Montenegro (Bijelo Polje, Rožaje, Berane, Pljevlja, Gusinje and Plav). On the basis of the 1991 census the number of the inhabitants of Sandzak included 420.000 people – 278.000 in Serbia and 162.000 in Montenegro, of which 54% are Muslims by ethnicity. Sandzak, which is carrying its name after a Turkish word for a military district, constituted a part of the Bosnian Pashalik within the Ottoman Empire until the year 1878. On the Berlin Congress, which was held at the same year, the great powers decided to leave Sandzak within the framework of the Ottoman Empire, but have allowed Austro- Hungary to deploy their forces in a part of this region. Through an agreement between the kings of Serbia Peter I. Karadjordjevic and of Montenegro Nikola I. Petrovic, but thanks to Russia, Serbia and Montenegro took control over Sandzak in the First Balkan War of 1912. Up to the Balkan Wars in 1912 and 1913, Sandzak represented a separate administrative unit with the administration and cultural center being in Novi Pazar. After the end of the Balkan Wars the process of emigration of the Bosniac population to Turkey continued and through the port of Bar left for Turkey in the period between April and June 1914 some 16.500 Bosniacs from the Montenegrin part of Sandzak and some 40.000 from the Serbian part. -
