Campaigns
We are launching a media campaign “Standing by Democracy” aiming to encourage citizens to stand by the values of endangered democracy – to encourage them to truly act like citizens, with all the rights, freedoms and responsibility that being a citizen means.
The organisation CRTA initiated together with Slavko Ćuruvija Foundation, the action “Stop the battue, wake REM up!” inviting all citizens to file complaints against Radio-Television Pančevo, due to a negative campaign towards the journalist Nenad Živković.
After the action organised by the Independent Journalists’ Association of Serbia (NUNS) and the organisation CRTA, more than 300 complaints were addressed to the REM. The epilogue is to be expected after the next session.
Independent citizen electoral observation missions are a part of the electoral process in many countries in Europe and the world, regardless of the quality of democracy and of the status of human rights.
Due to the bad experience of previous elections as well as the tensions between the parties and the candidates’ election headquarters, the CRTA “Citizens on Watch” observation mission calls on all relevant institutions to do everything within their competence to allow for fair and fair presidential elections.
