The Road to Reconciliation, which is based on the history of the 20th century. it is shown only to those who have come to terms with the past of their own people, which is full of antagonisms, prejudices, accusations and hatred.<\/p>

A common path to understanding the history of the 20th century. which we navigate through participation in projects and the development of dialogue at scientific meetings, helps us to better understand contemporary social processes in the region. Sharing these processes is one possible path to reconciliation that requires each participant to leave behind their own biases and misconceptions.<\/p>

To follow this path means to look at the past from which one can clearly see a common future open to the application of complete peace, both personal and wider, social.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

During the 20 century, the peoples of the former Yugoslavia survived two world wars and a whole series of wars from the nineties of the 20th century. century that influenced their political, economic, cultural and other relations. <\/p>

Unfortunately, the ethnic conflicts that began in 1991 and ended ten years later, they began the latest history of mutual barbarism, hatred, fears and conflicts. However, this does not mean that all ties have been broken and that the former good inter-ethnic relations have been destroyed. <\/p>

More than thirty years after the last ethnic conflict on the territory of the former Yugoslavia, there are initiatives and cooperation in our region that show the desire to restore trust, coexistence and the path to reconciliation. <\/p>

These initiatives can only be realized if each participant in this process first comes to terms with his own past, which he must clear of his own prejudices.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

CHDR achieves the goal of fostering regional cooperation and strengthening the policy of regional stability and reconciliation by launching research projects<\/a> , organizing scientific meetings<\/a> , round tables<\/a> , summer schools<\/a> , art colonies<\/a> and co-production in the production of documentary films<\/a> in the field of political and social history, with a special emphasis on the history of Yugoslavia in 20. century and the wider Southeast European region. <\/p>

The participants of our projects mostly encounter problems related to topics such as: the culture of memory<\/b> , protection of minority rights<\/b> , ethnic conflicts<\/b> , political and cultural cooperation<\/b> , the influence of ideologies on societies<\/b> , issues related to the protection of refugees and migrants<\/b> , anti-Semitism<\/b> and the Holocaust<\/b> . <\/p>

Given that Serbian-Croatian relations<\/a> had the greatest influence on the creation and dissolution of common states in the 20th century. century, CHDR pays the most attention to them. <\/p>

In this field, we deal with the contemporary history of Croatian-Serbian relations, the sustainable development<\/b> of the Croatian community in Serbia<\/b> and the Serbian community in Croatia<\/b> both through their participation in political life and through the application of innovations in the fields of tourism and agro-economy<\/b> as ways of their survival in authentic and smaller settlements. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

CHDR connects with those parties and politicians in our region who support the policy of regional stability and reconciliation<\/b> . <\/p>\n

In terms of protecting the rights of national communities in Croatia and Serbia, CHDR has cooperated with the high representative of the parliamentary group of friendship with Croatia, the Democratic Union of Croats in Vojvodina<\/a> and the Independent Democratic Serbian Party in Croatia<\/a> . <\/p>\n

At the gatherings in Golubi\u0107 (Obrova\u010dki) in cooperation with the sister organization Association for History, Cooperation and Reconciliation<\/a> from Croatia, joint work is carried out with the aforementioned parties in order to achieve the highest possible protection of the rights of the aforementioned two minority communities in Serbia and Croatia.<\/p>\n

Through joint work with partners, CHDR respects and nurtures the culture of preservation of national communities in neighboring countries through the strengthening of their political, economic and cultural individuality. <\/p>\n

According to CHDR, this cooperation spreads democratic values \u200b\u200bin the political arena. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Our projects support a multinational and multidisciplinary perspective of dealing with the past<\/b> in the former Yugoslavia.<\/p>

Its impartiality must come from the author’s willingness to hear and understand the other side, to face historical documents and use them objectively.

The creation of a modern democratic social community opens up opportunities for faster economic development and long-term stability.

The scientists who gathered in Salzburg represented a cross-section of different professions from the countries of the former Yugoslavia, united in the common goal of promoting dialogue<\/b> and reconciliation in a region<\/b> that was still suffering from the consequences of the wars of the 1990s. <\/p>

At this meeting, the proposal to create a Center for History, Democracy and Reconciliation under the auspices of IHJR was discussed. <\/span><\/p>

The CHDR would serve as a gathering place for experts, organizations and non-governmental organizations in the region. Those gathered would work on issues related to <\/span>\n confronting the past<\/b>\n<\/span> ,<\/span> \n reconciliation<\/b>\n<\/span> , promoting<\/span> \n civil society<\/b>\n<\/span> ,<\/span> \n democratization<\/b>\n<\/span> and<\/span> \n the study of history<\/b>\n<\/span> freed from the chauvinism that marked the 1990s.<\/span> <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
