ACTIVITIES

PASOS supports the development and strengthens the outreach and impact of its 56 members.

Since 2008, the Coalition for Freedom of Access to Information (Spikoalicija) has been dedicated to monitoring the implementation of the Law on Free Access to Information of Public Importance.

is an anti-corruption and good governance coalition created in November 2012 by 17 likeminded CSOs in Southeast Europe, involving partners from nine countries (Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Kosovo*, Republic of North Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia and Turkey).

For the ninth consecutive year, BCSP was recognized among the best think tanks in the world on the research topics of defence and national security, and foreign policy and international relations.

It is with great regret that we inform the public that Milorad Timotic, one of the founders of the Belgrade Centre for Security Policy, a long-term Vice-President of the Executive Board and a member of the BCSP Assembly, has passed away.

BCSP wishes you a safe and sound New Year! In 2021, we will continue to strive for a democratic society overseen by accountable institutions, in which security is a public good and people are free, equal and free from fear.

We hereby express our dissatisfaction with the lack of reforms that the Government of Serbia has accepted to implement in the EU accession process, the deterioration of respect for democratic principles and the rule of law, the presence of hate speech and the increase in violence against individuals, journalists, media, those who do not share views of the current political establishment and civil society organizations, which are guaranteed by the Constitution and laws of the Republic of Serbia, who present critical views of the work and results of state institutions and bodies.

The Belgrade Centre for Security Policy and partner organizations, prepared a series of seminars for activists throughout Serbia. In the period from August to December, over 15 meetings and trainings were held in which about 150 activists from local communities participated.

How to communicate complex research effectively? How to present different parts of the research to different audiences? Why think about all this from the very beginning of the research process? These are just some of the issues that BCSP interns discussed with Stevan Vujasinović, a communications expert in the field of public policy, at the third online workshop held on December 8th and 9th.
