A webinar entitled “Human Rights in Times of Crisis” took place today, on July 9, through the Zoom platform. The webinar was organized as part of the Civic Alliance project (within which the School of Political Studies operates), which was supported by the Council of Europe.

Lecturers at the webinar were Siniša Bjeković, Protector of Human Rights and Freedoms, Maja Raičević, Executive Director of Center for Women’s Rights and Bojana Jokić, President of the Management Board of NGO LGBT Forum Progress.

The speakers, each from their own perspective, spoke about the situation within vulnerable groups (women victims of violence, people with disabilities, LGBT population, Roma), about the impact of hate speech on their security and they also expressed opinion on how institutions react, how to help vulnerable groups to solve the problems they face.
