ECER 2025, Belgrade

Serbia is currently seeing a series of peaceful protests calling for full transparency and accountability over the collapse of a concrete and glass canopy at the station in Novi Sad which had been renovated and reopened briefly just before the incident.

The protests have been carried out largely by students and have been peaceful to date. The students’ movement has even been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize recently.

As conference organizers, we are of course monitoring the situation closely and EERA is in close contact with the local organizing committee at the University of Belgrade. From today's perspective (27 March 2025) we do not foresee any risks related to the protests for prospective participants.

If you have any concerns about travelling to Belgrade, our advice is to check your government's travel advisory.
