New Publication: Integration of Refugees and IDPs: Focus of SRC

Dear readers,

The Serbian Refugee Council (SRC) is pleased to present the second issue of its quarterly Newsletter.

The Newsletter is available on the following SRC link: http://www.ssi. org.yu/images/ stories/SSINewsl etters/SRC_ Newsletter_ 2nd.pdf

The focus of this issue is on integration of refugees and internally displaced persons (IDPs) in Serbia.

The Newsletter brings forth major recommendations of the SRC analytical report entitled “Integration as a Durable Solution for Refugees and Internally Displaced Persons in Serbia”, followed by information about the SRC member organizations` activities in this field. A separate article, written by an independent expert, presents an overview of heretofore achievements and failures in refugee/IDP integration process in Serbia.

Besides the articles on refugee/IDP integration, the Newsletter also includes information about advocacy campaigns for a new asylum law, IDP access to rights and repatriation of refugees to Croatia, which were organized by the SRC founding members. Future SRC activities are outlined in the Newsletter, as well.

The SRC invites your comments and suggestions in order to help us make this Newsletter indeed useful and interesting for all those working in this field.

We wish you enjoyable reading!

Kind regards,

The SRC team
