Support Measures for Learners in Higher Education Published on Eurydice (https://eacea.ec.europa.eu/national-policies/eurydice) Definition of the Target Group(s) Disabled persons studying in Serbian higher education institutions may receive financial support for studies. Students from socially disadvantaged families may receive social scholarships. Specific Support Measures Financial support for learners is defined by theLaw on Pupils and Students' Standard [1], whereby students are entitled to the following: 1. Accommodation 2. Subsidised meals 3. Student loans 4. Student grants 5. Grants for talented students Accommodation and subsidized meals The state subsidises accommodation and meals for all students at public institutions who are funded from the state budget. In addition, subsidised accommodation in dorms is granted to those studying out of their place of residence. There are 8 student centres in Serbia which provide both subsidised accommodation and meals (Belgrade, Novi Sad, Niš, Kragujevac, Subotica, Čačak, Bor and Užice). The city of Belgrade can accommodate 12,000 students in 14 dorms, Novi Sad 3,000 students etc. Students from private universities and those who are not funded from the state budget have the possibility of getting accommodation in a student dorm only on condition that there are vacant places left and at the economic prices. Approximately 7.36% of students were accommodated in dorms in the academic year 2011/12. In the same academic year, revenues collected from dorm accommodation fees were approximately 1.6 million EUR, whereas the state subsidised an additional amount of 8 million EUR. According to the EQUIED report, in the academic year 2011/12, public expenditures for subsidised accommodation and meals were 22 million EUR, whereas approximately 40,000 students were using subsidised meals. Student loans Funding for the above mentioned support mechanisms is provided by the Government, the benefits being intended for students studying at public universities and funded from the state budget. Student loans are non-refundable for those who graduate in time with 8.5 or higher average grade (out of 10). Otherwise, students are obliged to return the loan with due interest. In order to qualify for a loan, apart from having a “budget-financed” status at a public university as the initial condition, students are further on ranked according to their study success (number of ECTS gained during the previous course of studies, or alternatively secondary school achievement for first-year students), and according to their socio-economic status. The latter criterion carries a 25% share in the total ranking, which implies that studying performance is the main criterion for receiving a student loan. In the academic year 2014/15, a monthly loan instalment was 8,400 RSD (approximately 70 EUR) per student. Students receive their loans in 10 monthly instalments per year. In the academic year 2011/12, a total of 6% of the entire student body were recipients of student loans (EQUI-ED: 84). Student grants Student grants are awarded by the Ministry of Education, Science and Technological Development [2] to „budget-financed“ students with excellent accomplishments (average grade has to be 9 or higher on a 5-10 grading scale). There are additional affirmative measures for receiving student grants for students from vulnerable groups. These grants are part of general Competition, and ranking of students from vulnerable groups is still merit based, with additional needs-based criteria, like the proof of disability, certificate/proof of socio-economic status etc. The grant amount is the same as that for loans: in the academic year 2014/15, recipients of student grants were allocated respective monthly amounts of 8,400 RSD (approximately 70 EUR). Grants for talented students From the state budget and through the Ministry of Youth and Sports [2], special grants are awarded for outstanding accomplishments to students from the Young Talents Fund. Students funded under this programme are obliged to remain in the country for a certain number of years following graduation. The monthly amount awarded through this programme is approximately 100 EUR per student. State universities, provincial and university cities’ governments provide funds for supporting talented and best students. Students who apply for this type of grants are not eligible to receive other grants from state budget (such as state grants, and state loans described below). Ranking is strictly merit based. Many of the local self-governments that are not university centres provide students from their municipalities/cities with local grants and loans for studying in another city, as well as other types of benefits, but there are no systematic data on the range and type of grants/loans/scholarships provided. In addition to the above mentioned support mechanisms as defined by theLaw on Higher Education [2], all students are entitled to subsidised transportation in all cities in Serbia, as well as to discounts for inter-city travels. Some local governments have introduced free transportation for students in their municipalities. The right to subsidised transportation is granted to all students at both pubic and private institutions. Apart from the state budget, the city of Belgrade, for example, funds 240 best-performing students and 80 students with disabilities per year. Tuition fees are free of charge for the following student categories: 1. Individuals from families with lower socio-economic backgrounds; 2. Individuals without parental care; 3. Individuals from single-parent families; 4. Members of the Roma national minority; 5. Individuals with disabilities, those with chronic diseases and convalescents; 6. Refugees and displaced persons; 7. Returnees under the Readmission Agreement and deported students; 8. Individuals from families with lower socio-economic backgrounds and children without parental care. In addition, students with disabilities, Roma students and students who finished secondary school in another country could apply for tuition fee exemption through affirmative measures within official call for enrolment.

    COUNCIL OF EUROPE EUROPEAN LANDSCAPE CONVENTION National Workshop on the implementation of the European Landscape Convention in Bosnia and Herzegovina Drawing landscape policies for the future Trebinje, Bosnia and Herzegovina 25-26 January 2018 SESSION 1 SERBIA Mrs Jasminka LUKOVIC JAGLICIC Director Advisor, Regional Economic Development Agency, Sumadija and Pomoravlje The role of the Regional Economic Development Agency for Sumadija and Pomoravlje in the process of the implementation of the European Landscape Convention at regional and local level The Regional Economic Development Agency for Sumadija and Pomoravlje was founded in 2002 as the partnership between public, civil and private sectors, with the purpose of planning and management of equal territorial development. The Law on Regional Development (adopted in July 2009, “Official Gazette of the Republic of Serbia”, No. 51/2009, 30/2010 and 89/2015) defined the competence and area of intervention of regional development agencies for planning of development processes at regional level, applying the principles of broad stakeholder participation, inter-municipal and cross-sector approach in identifying problems and measures to address them. REDASP consistently applies these principles in its work on the one hand and has the ratification of the European Landscape Convention on the other hand. Thus the Republic of Serbia has recognised the landscape as an essential component of the human environment and agreed to 1). establish and implement a set of policies aimed at the protection, management and planning of the area and 2). to establish procedures for involvement of the wider public, local and regional authorities, as well as other landscape policy stakeholders.

Kragujevac covers an area of 835 square kilometers, andlies within the slopes of the Rudnik, Gledic and Crni Vrh Mountains. The river of Lepenica runs slowly through the city center. A series of rivers and tributaries bisect the city with the landscape enhanced by the stretches of mountain ranges of the Rudnik and Gledic along with the peak of the Crni Vrh. Many rivers link Kragujevac with the District of Pomoravlje, creating heavily trafficked international transportation routes. Kragujevac is located at a crossroads. Given this location, the city has been devastated many times and has suffered great losses of life in a number of wars throughout history. Kragujevac began to prosper in 1818 when Prince Milos Obrenovic proclaimed it the capital of the new Serbian State, and began to lay the first foundations of Serbia.
