The resilience and vitality of municipalities in Serbia in responding to the risks posed by natural and other disasters are the central themes of the National Human Development Report (NHDR) for 2015 and of a new study conducted by the Center, which aims to offer concrete proposals for more effective action by institutions at the local and national levels. The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in Serbia selected the Center to prepare this new NHDR in response to the challenges Serbia faced during the major floods in May of the previous year.

For more than a decade, national and regional HDR teams advance the human development conceptual framework and address the most pressing development challenges of the day. These reports, published in over 135 countries, are grounded in thorough analytic research and represent a dynamic advocacy tools. They generate lively debates around the policies and actions needed to accelerate human development and achieve the Millennium Development Goals, i.e. Sustainable Development Goals.

As the forth National HDR, the report “Resilience of Municipalities” will be launched in early 2016 in Belgrade.  Serbian report builds on the global 2014 Human Development Report – Sustaining Human Progress: Reducing Vulnerabilities and Building Resilience, which provides a fresh perspective on vulnerability and proposes new ways to strengthen resilience. The team of experts and researchers is led by Branka Andjelkovic, CENTER’s Program Director, and expert in public administration and social inclusion.
