The cyclists who rode across half of Europe to deliver a message to the European Parliament in Strasbourg have returned home. Another spectacular welcome was organized for them in Novi Sad, after those that took place in major European cities. In this Labyrinth, we include Veljko from the Technical Faculty in Novi Sad to tell us about the message that was delivered to the MEPs and to share with us their experiences from the long journey. The next great feat of the Serbian students will be a run to Brussels.
In this episode of Transitional justice we talk about the protection of women in the post conflict period. The UN recognized the need to highlight the role and the position of women in the world after armed conflicts and adopted the Resolution 1325. This Resolution urges all actors to increase the participation of women and incorporate gender perspectives in all UN peace and security efforts. Our interlocutor for this topic is Professor Lidija Georgieva from the Faculty of Philosophy. We asked The Professor Georgieva what is done after the adoption of this Resolution, especially in the Balkan countries?
Due to the days of silence, we decided not to publish any other content, so today we are publishing the reportage from the big protest that took place in Belgrade on March 15th.
We welcomed the three walking groups of students who arrived the day before and followed the entire
protest to the end. We talked to several Serbian actors about the current situation, as well as some of
the students, bikers and citizens. A sound cannon was also used at the protest, and one of the injured
students told his experience in the Labyrinth. Watch the full episode.
Голем број студенти се собраа на кампусот на УКИМ да изразат сочувство за настраданите во страшниот пожар во дискотеката во Кочани. Обраќања имаа ректорката и министерката за образование, а на неколкумина студенти им се слоши за време на едно од обраќањата. Режисерот Леонид Велковски за ИД Медиа го проследи овој собир и поразговара со претседателот на УСС – УКИМ и со неколкумина студенти.
For underdeveloped or less developed countries, financial support from the international community is extremely important. After the major changes that have occurred in the United States, which have affected the civil society sector, part of the media, as well as state institutions, the question arises whether other countries will follow the same example. Specifically, today we are discussing whether Germany will maintain its current policy of helping the underdeveloped. We are discussing this with the Director of the German International Cooperation Agency GIZ, David Oberhuber.
The city of Niš has never been louder. Literally all the streets were filled with people who came from all over Serbia to support the students who are demanding justice for the terrible accident that took 15 lives. After a five-day walk, the students had the strength to stand on the streets of Niš for 18 hours. Citizens joined them because, as they say, the students' demands are the demands of the people. The atmosphere was very emotional, and hugs were a common sight in the streets. The students had a cultural program, sports and social activities, and in the main part they read the student edict, followed by a musical program. The city was full until midnight and then cleaned up by the students and citizens who voluntarily stayed to help them.
Watch the full report.
Serbian students were welcomed in every city with tears in their eyes, loud applause and fireworks. After the big rally in Kragujevac, the students also organized a walk to Niš. They set off from several different cities and walked for five days to their final destination. As a sign of support, several citizens, a group of marathon runners, as well as a group of cyclists, joined them, and the locals organized a welcome with loud cheers and torches. Throughout their journey, the students had medical support provided by medical students, as well as by medical staff from institutions across Serbia who volunteered to treat their wounds. Watch the reportage from part of the students' journey, and tomorrow the second part will follow, namely the reportage from the big rally on March 1st.
