description Programs for perpetrators of gender-based violence, which are implemented in an integrated manner with victim support services, with continuous monitoring and risk management, form the basis of comprehensive protection and support for victims of gender-based violence in Serbia. In the period from 2011. to 2021. these programs were implemented predominantly within the centres for social work, without established professional, technical and financial stability. This paper aims to present the survey results on the current situation in the implementation of the program for perpetrators of intimate partner violence (IPV) in Serbia in 2021. Research aimed to identify whether and to what extent the current programs for perpetrators of IPV in Serbia were implemented following defined standards of work, to determine possible shortcomings, to formulate recommendations for their improvement, and to improve the sustainability of the program’s implementation. Experts from the National Network OPNA conducted the survey on a sample of organisations that implemented programs with perpetrators and organisations that provide support for victims of violence. Findings show that most programs are not implemented following the defined standards. Therefore, harmonisation of the implementation of the programs with the standards is a change that must be introduced in order to make the protection of victims as effective as possible.
