From 8 to 11 May, IDC hosted the 8th International Samaritan Cooperation (ISC) network Conference in Belgrade, organized in cooperation with Arbeiter-Samariter-Bund<\/span><\/span>.

The conference theme, \u201cSocial Entrepreneurship \u2013 Opportunities and Challenges\u201d, brought together lectures, study visits, group work and presentations of innovative ideas for sustainable social enterprises. Participants had the opportunity to learn more about successful examples from Serbia and discuss models that contribute to greater social inclusion and economic empowerment of vulnerable groups.<\/p>\n

A particularly valuable part of the programme were study visits to social enterprises in Belgrade \u2013 \u201cBagel Bejgl\u201d, \u201cNa\u0161a Ku\u0107a\u201d and \u201cZvuci srca\u201d \u2013 where participants could directly experience how social entrepreneurship works in practice and how it contributes to the community through employment opportunities and support for people from vulnerable social groups.<\/p>\n

The conference once again highlighted the importance of international cooperation and mutual support among civil society organizations in developing sustainable and inclusive solutions to social challenges.
