The Head of the OSCE Mission to Serbia, Ambassador
Peter Burkhard and the Deputy Head of Mission, Michael Uyehara
visited the House of Human Rights (HHR) in Belgrade today, and met
representatives of the Civic Initiatives and the Policy Centre, two
of the five civil society organizations based at the House.
The meeting completes a round of consultations
with civil society actors, which also included the other tenants of
the HHR: the Helsinki Committee for Human Rights, the Lawyers
Committee for Human Rights, and the Belgrade Centre for Human
Rights.
“Civil society organizations play an important
role in any modern society and significantly contribute to the
quality of democratic processes in Serbia,” said Ambassador
Burkhard. The Mission’s leadership noted that the engagement of
civil society organizations will also benefit the monitoring of
upcoming elections and the electoral campaign.
