Aims	The program was created in the framework of several sections. First part referrers to critical thinking on social protection policy from the perspective of goals, actors and program commitments. The focus of the study are assistance programs and help for the poor in Montenegro (and beyond), starting from the concept of income reallocation, need for state intervention, content and character of rights, to the limitations and barriers in social transfers and funding problems. Comparative study of social protection systems in the EU member states provides the opportunity to explore specific national models, common policy to combat poverty and social exclusion, coordination and convergence of the system, open and unsolved issues. Practice makes a significant part of this course (in institutions, services, organizations), which gives students an opportunity to get familiar with specific issues and ways to resolve them.
