A meeting of feminists from Croatia and Serbia titled “Feminist Ethics of Responsibility in Different Political Contexts – Serbia and Croatia” was held from 24 to 27 April 2014 in Poreč. The Centre for Civic Initiatives Poreč and Women in Black Belgrade organizes the meeting, as part of the project funded by Mediterranean Women’s Fund.

The four-day meeting is part of the activities conducted by feminists from former Yugoslavia, with the goal of organizing the Women’s Court – Feminist Approach to Justice, which will be held in spring, 2015 in Sarajevo.

The meeting in Poreč will gather feminists from Serbia and Croatia who take part in organizing the Women’s Court. They will discuss the context in which various violations of women’s human rights occur. This conceptualisation is important for the Women’s Court because it analyses the conditions in which feminists work, analyses state policies toward dealing with the past and establishing justice for women war victims, as well as policies relating to women and poverty, and gender-based violence.
