What it’s about

Needs that remained invisible until now.

Managing stray and owned dogs is a statutory duty of municipalities in Romania – yet many reach the limits of their organisational or financial capacity. At the same time, numerous national and international organisations are committed to sustainable solutions: CNVR programmes, shelter placement with adoption promotion, or combinations of both approaches. Their support, however, often remains uncoordinated. CAMRO creates a structured connection between municipal needs and external support – for municipalities committed to humane and lasting solutions.

LEGAL BASIS
Statutory duty
The management of stray dogs in Romania is a statutory municipal duty governed by specific legislation.
RECOGNISED APPROACHES
CNVR & Shelter
Neutering & return or shelter placement with adoption promotion – both approaches are eligible for support.
COVERAGE
41 Counties + București
CAMRO is open to municipalities in all Romanian counties.

We asked 3,001 municipalities what they need

105 analysed responses show where structures are missing, which kind of support is wanted, and why many municipalities have never worked with an organisation.

STEP 01 — NEED

Municipality reports its need

A municipality sets out its specific needs in managing stray and owned dogs via a standardised online form.

STEP 02 — VERIFICATION

Verification & assessment

The CAMRO team reviews the information; an independent local partner verifies it in addition.

STEP 03 — COOPERATION

Targeted cooperation

External organisations provide precisely fitting support – complementary, not as a replacement for municipal responsibility.

Project status

Under construction – transparent from the start.

CAMRO is currently in its first phase. Rather than unfinished metrics, we prefer to show where we stand.

Phase 1 · Now

Build the project exchange

First municipalities are registered, needs structured and made visible.

Phase 2 · In preparation

Expand monitoring instruments

On-site verification network and trial phase documentation are established and made binding.

Phase 3 · Planned

Nationwide scaling

Expansion to further counties and additional partner organisations.
