Conference for free, fair and democratic elections, April 10, Hotel Park Residence, 12.00 noon

CIVIL – Center for Freedom is organizing a 120-minute conference titled “Like Elections – Like Future” where it will present its findings, analyses and recommendations for the upcoming presidential elections. The conference will be held on April 10, at Hotel Park Residence (behind the football stadium), starting at 12.00 noon.

Representatives of institutions, civil society, experts, media and the international community have been invited to the conference. CIVIL’s long-term monitoring has covered the situation and events related to the presidential elections, starting from their announcement on February 8th this year. CIVIL’s observers focused their attention on several important aspects of the election process, including hate speech, false news, the functioning of the institutions, the political financing and the respect for the Electoral Code and democratic standards.

In this past period, CIVIL published a series of interviews with the highest representatives of several relevant institutions and government representatives, as well as with representatives of the expert community and the media.

At the same time, CIVIL also published a series of educational texts on the election process, which will be published in an online publication titled “Everything you want to know about the elections” that will be published on CIVIL’s media platform during the conference.

For years, ahead of the elections, CIVIL has been organizing this kind of conferences, with the intention to strengthen public awareness and deliver recommendations for holding free, fair and democratic elections. This year, the conference is held as part of the project “Citizens for a free society”, with the support of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Federal Republic of Germany.
