  2. Serbia and diaspora • Serbia falls into a category of states which, in comparison to their population, have a large diaspora. Our country, currently in political transition, has not been able to maintain the most exemplary relations with its diaspora.

  3. International conference • The Ministry of Diaspora proposes the organization of an international conference under the name of, “Motherland and Diaspora – World’s Experience” which would bring together respected officials from around the world, as well as representatives from various organizations, to share in their common diasporic interests.
