Danijela Božanić Design and illustration: Tatjana Kuburovic COORDINATED BY: Ministry of Agriculture and Environmental Protection 4 SERBIA’S FIRST NATIONAL ADAPTATION PLAN Introduction Climate change as a consequence of anthropogenic activities, primarily by means of increasing the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere can now be unambiguously detected and quantified through measured changes in many aspects of the climate system. Based on numerous studies, analyzes and reports, it is clear that today broad agreement exists on the far-reaching consequences if the global community fails to achieve future changes within the limits necessary for continued development of our global society. The long-term goal of the international community is to limit the rise in mean global temperature to 2 ° C above pre-industrial levels by means of significant reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. Observed climate changes lead to changes in the environmental, social and economic indicators, i.e. to changes in the overall conditions in which contemporary society lives across the globe and also in Serbia.

  • Serb Community
    COMMUNITY PROFILE: SERB COMMUNITY 1. POPULATION SIZE AND LOCATION The Serbs comprise the largest minority community in Kosovo. The 2011 Kosovo census did not take place in northern Kosovo, and was boycotted by considerable numbers of Serbs in southern Kosovo. Therefore, estimates of the Serb community in Kosovo have to be based on alternative sources. Based on OSCE 2010 Community Profiles and 2013 OSCE Municipal Profiles, around 146,128 Serbs are estimated to reside in Kosovo, making up around 7.8% of the total population. The Serb community is approximately equally divided between northern Kosovo (70,430 Serb residents) and southern Kosovo (75,698 Serb residents). There are a total of ten municipalities where the Serb community constitutes a numerical majority. The largest Serb communities reside in the four northern municipalities, and in the southern municipalities of Gračanica/Graçanicë and Štrpce/Shtërpcë. Smaller Serb communities can also be found throughout Kosovo below the Ibar River, particularly in Central and Eastern Kosovo.
