In mid-September, Mr. Volker Beck, a member of the German Bundestag from the Green Party, visited Serbia. He held meetings with representatives of civil society organisations to discuss the situation of human rights in Serbia and the challenges they faced in the efforts for their realisation.
Mr. Beck was particularly interested in the topics related to asylum and migration, as well as those related to the Roma community and other ethnic minorities. The meetings were attended by Ivanka Kostić – Praxis Executive Director, Vuk Raičević - Antidiscrimination and Gender Equality Programme Coordinator and Boris Sijerković - Migration Protection Officer, who presented the major problems faced by refugees, migrants, asylum seekers and the Roma community, as well as the current activities of our organisation, including our comprehensive results achieved in the fight for human rights in Serbia.
