Presentation of reports “Human Rights in Serbia 2018” and “Right to Asylum in the Republic of Serbia 2018”

February 22, 2019

Yesterday we presented our two annual reports: “Human Rights in Serbia 2018” and “The Right to Asylum in the Republic of Serbia 2018”.

At the first part of the conference, devoted to the general annual report on the state of human rights in Serbia, were presented the most important conclusions in four areas: respect of economic and social rights, respect of the right to privacy, the position of the media in Serbia, and the work of independent institutions.

In the second part of the conference, the seventh annual report on the situation in the field of asylum in Serbia was presented. Sonja Tošković, director of the Belgrade Center for Human Rights, pointed out that the most important novelty in the field of migration in 2018 is certainly the adoption and the beginning of the implementation of new laws – the Law on Asylum and Temporary Protection, the Law on Foreigners and the Law on Border Control.

Both reports are available in English language at our website: http://www.bgcentar.org.rs/bgcentar/eng-lat/reports/
