    Country Report 2018: Serbia
    (2018) Antic, Aleksandra Vesic
    The legal framework governing POs in Serbia is comprised of the Law on Associations and the Law on Endowments and Foundations. The Law on Associations permits the formation and operation of unregistered groups, but registration is required if associations wish to take part in legal or financial transactions, such as opening a bank account, having employees, etc. Foundations and endowments must be registered, as they are defined as legal entities by the law. Registration of an association requires a minimum of three founders; individuals or legal entities, domestic or foreign, and anyone over the age of 14 is permitted to be a founder. The Law on Endowments and Foundations requires only one individual or legal entity to be a founder, either domestic or foreign.

    The Health of the Serbian Roma/Gypsies: A Research Report
    (Office of the Vice Chancellor for Research, 2015-04-17) Biviji-Sharma, Rizwana; Cvorovic, Jelena; Coe, Kathryn
    The Balkan region is densely populated by Roma, a socially disadvantaged, stigmatized and relatively reproductively isolated ethnic group. Health data from across Europe show that being a Roma is associated with much poorer health status than is seen in the majority populations or among other ethnic minority groups. These data may not be accurate as the number of Roma was grossly underestimated. Almost nothing is known about the health of Serbian Roma. In this presentation we describe the results of a 2014 study of Serbian Roma women living in two settlements in the northern province of Serbia, with a focus placed on investigating health history of the females and their close kin. We focused on health concerns and on behaviors that are protective or that increase risk for chronic diseases (e.g., cancer, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases). A special focus placed on reproductive histories.
