During the last decade #whistleblowing has increasingly been mainstreamed in the South-eastern European countries. Presently these countries have adopted the whistleblower legislation and have embarked on the process of reviewing their legal frameworks to align them with the EU Whistleblower Directive.
This report is an assessment of whistleblower protection in 10 South Eastern European countries in terms of:
- legislation,
- its implementation and outcomes, as well as
- number and type of whistleblower cases.
The report highlights some of the improvements and whistleblower cases, while acknowledging further challenges. It marks a new milestone in the commitment of civil society organizations to continue to play a role in the strengthening of whistleblower protection, freedom of expression and rule of law.
We would like to thank our members who provided the assessment of the countries at focus.
