This regional report aims at understanding the characteristics, patterns, and causes of femicide in Albania, Montenegro and Serbia and setting forth recommendations for prevention. The research methodology was developed in Serbia (from 2018-2021) and adapted to the national contexts of Albania and Montenegro. It represents the first interdisciplinary research on femicide in all three countries and is supposed to be used "in planning preventive measures and activities, preparing trainings for relevant actors, as well as in campaigns to raise public awarenes".

Among many other findings, researchers were able to reveal that 109 cases of femicides in Albania, Montenegro and Serbia, committed from 2020 to 2022, had not been covered by the judicial research and could be tracked and analysed through media reporting.

Similar to many other analyses, this report concludes by calling for the establishment of a centralised national data collection system to enable better recording of cases of violence against women and domestic violence.
