What is the Impact of the Migrant Crisis upon the Security of Citizens of Subotica?

Jelena Sapic and Filip Stojanovic, CENTRE's members, talked with local actors in Subotica on Monday, February 13, 2017. They discussed potential impact of the ongoing so-called migrant crisis on the local security in Subotica. The meetings were organized in cooperation with the Youth Office of the City of Subotica.
 
Based on the data gathered through the meetings, the research team will prepare a policy brief that will be presented on a panel discussion planned for March or April 2017. The participants of the meetings, MPs who have residence in Subotica and representatives of the OSCE mission to Serbia will attend the panel discussion.
