The ceremonial assignment of certificates for students of the jubilee X-generation educational program "PolitiKAS" was held on May 20, 2019 in the premises of the Belgrade Open School. During the awarding of the certificate, the participants were Gordana Pilipovic from KAS, Danijela Grubnic, coordinator of the educational program "PolitiKAS" and Milorad Bjeletic, Executive Director of BOS. On this occasion, they emphasized that all 24 participants successfully completed the program, which speaks about the commitment of both the organizer and the participants themselves.
The participants also had the opportunity to learn interesting information about Belgrade with the art historian Ana Samardzic this year before the start of the special lecture and solemn awarding of the diploma. This year's walk included Kalemegdan and the Belgrade Fortress. The participants had the opportunity to learn more about the peoples and political turmoil that took place at the crossroads of the two rivers.
After the walk, the participants had the opportunity to hear another special lecture of their choice. Every year, participants at the end of the semester are selected by the lecturers who want to hear again before the beginning of the ceremonial assignment of the certificate. This year, two lecturers, professor Vladimir Pavicevic and deputy Vladimir Orlic, were elected. The topic of this year's special lecture was "Reflections on Serbian contemporary parliamentarism", which was realized in the form of debates between lecturers and students.
After the lecture, the students were awarded with certificates and the most successful students were announced in the generation. This year, this title was given to Jovan Vidojevic and Nenad Joksimovic.
This year, the students acquired new knowledge within four modules, which were realized in two semesters. In the first semester, the modules Policy I and Economic and Social Policy were implemented, while in the second semester they attended lectures at the modules of Policy II and European Integration. During the program with colleagues and lecturers, participants had the opportunity to exchange knowledge and experiences and discuss on various topics.
