The Social Inclusion and Poverty Reduction Unit of the Government of the Republic of Serbia, in cooperation with the Belgrade Fund for Political Excellence and the Women’s Parliamentary Network of the National Assembly of the Republic of Serbia, organized a roundtable titled “Support of the Women’s Parliamentary Network for Gender Equality at the Local Level”, thereafter holding a seminar dedicated to social inclusion and poverty reduction. Both events were held in Kraljevo, on 27 and 28 February 2015.

The participants of the roundtable emphasized the importance of the political participation of women at all levels of authority, the importance of their empowerment at the local level, as well as the necessity for exchanging experiences, cooperation and building partnerships of all relevant stakeholders in the process of improving the status of women. The roundtable was followed by a seminar by the Women’s Parliamentary Network on social inclusion and poverty reduction, including three organized debates.
