Data on Poverty Trends in Serbia

Statements on PRS

“A national poverty reduction strategy must deal with the elimination of causes, and not only the consequences of poverty; the strategy must be defined as an integral part of the social development strategy, which has a long-term goal of building a successful, but also just society, in which solidarity and equality will dominate… The PRS is not the Government's project, but an integral strategy of all parts of society—ministries, private businesses, NGOs, international development partners.”

Zoran Đinđić,
former Prime Minister of the Government of Serbia,
at the Conference «Poverty profile in Serbia», Beograd,
December 18, 2002

Trade Unions Advisory Committee

Representatives of three trade union centers participated in the PRS preparation, their role being to include trade unions as equal social partners and their participation in the process of creating social policy of the country (Confederation of Autonomous Trade Unions of Serbia, Trade Union Confederation «Nezavisnost» and Association of Free and Independent Trade Unions).

At this moment there are no coordinated activities of the Trade Unions Advisory Committee. Still most activities of trade unions are directed at the prevention of «new» poverty as a consequence of economic restructuring and privatization.
