Summary/Abstract: Cultural diplomacy is a key component of international relations, engaging in cooperation and dialogue between nations through the exchange of ideas and values. This paper discusses the dynamics of German cultural diplomacy in Montenegro, with a focus on Germany's educational support. It first provides a theoretical background explaining the origins and definitions of the concepts of cultural diplomacy, followed by a brief historical overview of Germany’s approach to this field. The main section explores the historical ties and current collaborations between Germany and Montenegro, emphasizing the impact of educational and cultural initiatives in shaping these diplomatic relations and their contribution to the development of the Montenegrin society. This research adds to our understanding of how cultural diplomacy shapes international relations, offering insights into the challenges and opportunities associated with implementing soft power, particularly in the context of bilateral cooperation between Germany and Montenegro.
