November 25, Republic Square in Belgrade, 3 p.m.
With 16 Days of activism against violence against women in 2011 we demand:
Amandement on STALKING to the Criminal Code of the Republic of Serbia
Number of cases of stalking has been rising in Serbia, some of them with lethal ending. Victims have no protection and have been exposed to the violence with no sanctions for stalkers.
Being stalked means living in fear.
Art activist group ACT Women in cooperation with Deborah Hunt, directed by Dijana Milosevic, perform in the streets “TIRED!” dedicated to psychological violence and abuse of women. They perform women’s trans-generational transfer of obligations and expectations producing tiredness.

"Naglasak koji i sveštenici i diktatori stavljaju na neophodnost postojanja dva sveta dovoljno dokazuje kako je ta činjenica od suštinskog značaja za dominaciju."

Reconstruction Women's Fund for seven years is supporting and working with women's groups, collectives, initiatives, individual activists across Serbia.
Through four main programs, so far we supported over 80 different groups in 33 cities in Serbia.
This year we continue the development of local philanthropy and access to individual donors.
Our first trip through the local philanthropy was the sailing and spending time with Labud Ražnjatović who invited us to his boat, introduced to his friends and with whom we hope to achieve long-term cooperation.
Svetlana Saric our friend from the group SOS Vlasotince and Biljana Stankovic-Lori from Novi Sad Lesbian Organization were invited to present their work, as well as a broader concept of human rights: from the deconstruction of patriarchy and violence to the right on difference.
We had a presentation on a raft BARKA, where mostly men have gathered and were very supportive, ready for dialogue and cooperation.
The opening of the new spaces and opportunities for a wider circle of people to hear about us is one of the goals of Reconstruction Women's Fund, not only to increase the visibility of our work, but also to involve and engage more people who find very important to donate certain funds in the activities and continuous development of women's movement.
