  • Water Treatment Plant in Vrsac
    Water treatment plant in Vrsac A total of 6 million euros will be set aside for the construction of a drinking water treatment plant in Vrsac. An agreement on a loan and the project funding was signed today in Belgrade. The agreement is part of the Program of Water Supply and Sewerage in Medium-sized Municipalities in Serbia, which is being implemented by the Ministry of Economy in association with the Government of Germany and the German DEvelopment Bank (KfW) for the fourth consecutive year. The total value of that program, which covers 16 municipalities in Serbia with a total of over 1.5 million inhabitants, is 89.4 million euros, and the funds are provided from a donation and a loan. Implementation of the first part of the program started in 2008 in Kraljevo, Loznica, Pancevo, Sabac, Smederevo, Sombor, Sremska Mitrovica, and Vrsac. After the agreement was signed, Minister of Economy Nebojsa Ciric said to the press that that document was very significant for Vrsac. – This is a concrete example of assistance provided by the German government and KfW to Serbia, that is, the local self-government – he said and added that 60 percent of the funds were provided from a loan, while the rest came from a donation. He added domestic construction companies would be hired for the construction. German Ambassador Wolfram Maas stated that that project proved the intentions of Germany to support Serbia on its path to the EU. – We insist on making that assistance beneficial to each citizen, and the best way to do that is by helping the supply of water, electricity and heating energy – Mr.

Under the terms of the Paris Peace Treaty in 1921 it was annexed to the Serbo-Croat-Slovenian Kingdom, that later became Yugoslavia. The new name of this territory, situated to the east of present Croatia, was VOJVODINA (also spelled Voivodina or Voyvodina). Its former Hungarian name had been Bacska and Banat. During World War II, in 1941, Germany occupied Yugoslavia. At the same time, Hungary took possession of and re-annexed VOJVODINA from divided Yugoslavia. At the end of 1944, the Serbs reoccupied Bacska, which has belonged to Serbia ever since.

  • Unhcr Serbia Update
    09-15 OCT 2017 UNHCR SERBIA UPDATE HIGHLIGHTS AND STATISTICS . On 15 October, 4,275 new refugees, asylum-seekers and migrants were counted in Serbia, of which 3,855 were housed in 18 governmental centres (below chart as well as our Joint Assessment of Government Centres refer). Authorities made further excellent progress in school-enrolment: Some 85% of 7-14 year old refugee, asylum- seeking and migrant children attended classes, of which 430 attended public primary schools while some 70 were schooled inside the Transit Centres (TCs) of Sombor, Subotica or Kikinda. Some efforts are also being made to enrol children over 14 years of age into secondary schools. During the week, the authorities closed all remaining temporary emergency shelters (rub-halls and tents) in the TCs of Adasevci, Principovac, Sombor and Kikinda, and relocated all men and boys who had been accommodated therein into more solid long-term shelters. Additionally, they transferred some 50 unaccompanied and separated boys, who had been accommodated in Adasevci TC, to Krnjaca Asylum Centre (AC) and 112 men and boys who were camping outside centres near Sid to the Presevo Reception Centre (RC). UNHCR and partners continued assisting high numbers of 244 newly arrived asylum-seekers (compared to 272 last week). Sample profiling of a group of 118 new arrivals in Belgrade, showed that 40% were women and children and 60% men, that most fled Iraq (29%) or Afghanistan (24%) only one-three weeks ago and reached Serbia through Bulgaria (59%) and/or fYR Macedonia (35%). On 10 October, on the occasion of the World Mental Health Day, UNHCR partner Psychosocial Innovation Network (PIN) presented its Study on mental health of refugees in Serbia to partners and the media (for more details please see PIN's FB post.) .

  • Potentials of Renewable Energy Sources in the Republic of Serbia
    POTENTIALS OF RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCES IN THE REPUBLIC OF SERBIA WITH A DETAILED REVIEW OF THE EXPLOITATION OF GEOTHERMAL RESOURCES IN THE AUTONOMOUS PROVINCE OF VOJVODINA Zoran Stipi ć City of Subotica Urban Planning Institute, Trg Republike 16, Subotica, Serbia [email protected] Slobodan Vidovi ć Tehnoproing , Gogoljeva 13,Novi Sad, Serbia, [email protected] Mom čilo Spasojevi ć Faculty of Technical Sciences, Trg D.Obradovi ća 6, Novi Sad, Serbia, [email protected] Abstract: Energy supply is one of the basic issues in the contemporary world’s sustainable development. By adopting the Kyoto Protocol and implementing its mechanisms, it is expected that the use of conventional energy sources shall stabilise and decrease on global level. The European Union’s legal framework, through its appropriate directives, sets very clear objectives for the use of renewable energy sources for member states. Serbia is a country with significant potentials in renewable energy sources, which are, regretfully, underused. Renewable energy source potentials are featured by very favourable indicators in matters of both capacity and distribution. The status is especially favourable in the field of geothermal energy potentials in the Autonomous Province of Vojvodina, situated in the Pannonian Basin, where there are significant sources of this fuel. The paper presents the basic forms and characteristics of renewable energy sources in Serbia and provides an overview of the possibilities for their use. Key words: Renewable energy sources, potentials, capacities, resources, geothermal energy, Serbia, Vojvodina. 1. INTRODUCTION Solving global energy problems implies an interdisciplinary approach and considering the issues from different perspectives. Decreasing overall energy consumption, increasing energy efficiency, modernising the installation, using alternative energy sources and adopting and implementing a number of legal regulations and international covenants are the points of departure in solving this exceptionally complex issue.

  • Churches in Serbia and Germany in Dialogue
    TOWARD THE HEALING OF MEMORIES AND CHANGING OF PERCEPTIONS: CHURCHES IN SERBIA AND GERMANY IN DIALOGUE A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy By Angela V. Ilić MAY 2012 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Leonard J. Swidler, Advisory Chair, Department of Religion Dr. Terry Rey, Department of Religion Dr. John C. Raines, Department of Religion Dr. Paul B. Mojzes, Rosemont College Dr. Kyriakos M. Kontopoulos, External Reader, Department of Sociology © by Angela Valeria Ilić 2012 All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT This dissertation examines a series of interchurch consultations that took place between 1999 and 2009 with the participation of the Evangelical Church in Germany, the Roman Catholic German Bishops’ Conference and the Serbian Orthodox Church. The Protestant-Catholic-Orthodox ecumenical encounters began in the immediate aftermath of the Kosovo crisis, and aimed to support Serbia’s democratization and European integration. At a total of nine meetings, delegates from the participating churches, together with politicians, representatives of non-governmental organizations, and scholars from various fields, discussed the role of churches and religion in the two countries. The meetings provided a forum for exchanging knowledge and addressing the challenges confronting the churches and their social organizations. Through lectures, discussions, and meetings in working groups, the consultations focused on theological, legal, political, and social topics, such as church and state relations in Serbia, the role of churches in secularized society, Serbia’s relationship to the rest of Europe, reconciliation, and the healing of memories. Focusing on the content and the outcomes of the consultations, the author places them into the broader ecumenical, social and political context in which they took place.

The political environment has also stabilized in a business friendly trajectory, after two successful democratic elections and two Western oriented governments. The banking system has devel- oped to a level of sufficient quality for all normal foreign trade operations. The unresolved status of the State Union of Serbia and Montenegro will delay integration into the WTO until as least 2008. Nevertheless, quotas are likely to be eliminated via bi-later- al agreements with the US and EU in 2005. This market environment will be positive over time. The cost of production will continue to rise in EU member states and the US. The expansion of the EU to Central and Eastern Europe will accel- erate the rising production costs in these new member countries. Serbia will remain one of the last continental European markets for high skill low cost labor-intensive production. Progress in the textile and garment industry can be expected in a spontaneous ad hoc manner.
