This programme is very important for the CRTA, for all of us, as we strive to share knowledge with you in order to work together on the development of a democratic society in Serbia. Also, I would like to thank the OSCE Mission in Serbia, which have been supporting us in the program of the Academy of Democracy for the fourth consecutive year, and I am especially pleased that the National Democratic Institute has joined us this year. We are proud of our alumni and I sincerely hope that we will be proud of this new generation as well as that you will help us in our efforts to build a more advanced and developed society in Serbia \u201c, said Vukosava Crnjanski.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is highly motivating to see that the Academy of Democracy programme is still alive. This is a great way to celebrate the upcoming International Democracy Day. Also, I am inspired by the faces I see today. Serbia is rich in young people who are aware of the challenges facing society nowadays. Twenty-five people of different beliefs, ideals and political ideas share their thoughts during the Academy of Democracy, and are willing to work on changes that affect the development of democracy in Serbia. We will continue to work together with the CRTA because these young and ambitious people are ready to reflect on their future. Democracy is a moving process that should never be abandoned\u201d, said the ambassador Andrea Orizio, the Head of the OSCE Mission to Serbia.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_12569\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-12569\" class=\"wp-image-12569 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/crta.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/akademija-2-1024x484.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"484\" srcset=\"https:\/\/crta.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/akademija-2-1024x484.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/crta.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/akademija-2-600x284.jpg 600w, https:\/\/crta.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/akademija-2-300x142.jpg 300w, https:\/\/crta.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/akademija-2-768x363.jpg 768w, https:\/\/crta.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/akademija-2-1536x727.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/crta.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/akademija-2-500x237.jpg 500w, https:\/\/crta.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/akademija-2.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-12569\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo by: CRTA<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\u201cIt is my great pleasure that we are starting something new in our mutual cooperation.

The festival always brings something positive and joyful, which precisely what democracy is missing today as negative and abhorrent opinions are dominating.
