The Freedom Festival organized by CIVIL, on the occasion of the International Human Rights Day, starts with a panel discussion “Electoral Reforms: Desires vs. Reality”, on December 1, starting at 12 o’clock in the Park Residence Hotel, Skopje.

Electoral reforms are a topic that has been discussed for a long time and which, despite the changes introduced from one electoral process to another, are still far from reforms that will contribute to full democratization of the processes themselves, and will be in the best interest of citizens, ie voters.

Speakers at the panel will be Oliver Derkoski, President of the SEC, Katica Nikolovska, member of the SCPC, Radmila Lazareska Gerovska from the Ministry of Justice and Blagica Dimitrovska, President of the Inclusive Association. Representatives of CIVIL will be Petrit Saracini and Xhabir Deralla. The panel discussion will be moderated by Biljana Jordanovska.

The discussion will be organized through the Zoom platform, part of which will be with physical presence and will last for a maximum of 1 hour and 20 minutes. The panel will be broadcast live on the FB page of CIVIL, and contents of the discussion will be published afterwards through other media platforms of CIVIL Media.

During the discussion, the moderator will follow the reactions and questions on social networks, they will convey them to the participants in the debate and will expect your thoughts and views.
