The workshop brought together a significant number of participants, who took active part in the discussion, and who were representatives of foreign diplomatic missions, international organizations, other NGO’s, media, academia and representatives from other Swedish Alumni Networks, which gave the workshop an international signature.
Тhis year we marked five years since the establishment of the Center for Security Research (CSR). The CSR marked this important milestone by organizing an Annual Convention, which was attended by representatives from the security and defense sector, domestic and international public, including directors, mayors, members of parliament, NGO representatives and experts. We thank everyone who was present at the Convention!
As part of our strategy in building solid relations between the Center for Security Research in Skopje and leading international security research institutions, as well within the CSR framework for international cooperation, today we had a great kick-off meeting with the Kosovar Centre for Security Studies (KCSS), an independent policy research centre founded in April 2008 and based in Prishtina – Kosovo.
In the meeting with the Executive Director of KCSS, Mr. Mentor Vrajolli, we outlined the future scope of work and defined the common areas of cooperation between both organizations. The CSR aims to expand the understanding of international affairs, focusing on inter-relationship between security, conflict, and development, as well to assist governmental institutions in the region in understanding and dealing with modern security challenges through research and analysis.
