For complete agenda of the first Serbia-EU JCC meeting, visit the EESC website.

The JCC is a civil society platform established between the EESC and Serbian civil society. It complements with a civil society point of view the EU institutional framework related to the Stabilisation and Association Agreement between the EU and Serbia.

This joint institution will allow civil society organisations on both sides to monitor the country's accession negotiations. It is also a platform to discuss issues of common interest and to inform the public at large on the challenges ahead during the accession period.

The Office for Cooperation with Civil Society oragnised the voting for the members of the JCC in May 2014. There were 15 candidates for three priority areas, and 402 civil society organizations voted in total. Sonja Stojanovic Gajic won the largest number of votes needed for membership in the priority area of the Rule of Law.
