The Belgrade Security Conference organizers are pleased to announce that the representatives of the Nobel Peace Prize Winners for 2022 will deliver keynote speeches during the first day of the Conference.

The 2022 Nobel Peace Prize is awarded to human rights advocate Ales Bialiatski from Belarus, and two human rights organisations – Memorial from Russia and Center for Civil Liberties from Ukraine. As the Norwegian Nobel Committee has announced, this year’s laureates represent civil societies in their home countries and they demonstrate the importance of civil society for peace and democracy.

“The fight against the reign of terror must continue to be carried out by brave and dignified people within every community.”

Although written in 1984, these words of Vojin Dimitrijević are more relevant today than ever. This is precisely why this year’s Belgrade Security Conference will be dedicated to a prominent human rights defender and fighter for democracy Vojin Dimitrijević (1932 – 2012), on the occasion of ten years since his death.
