The Belgrade Centre for Security Policy is pleased to announce that its flagship high-level conference, the Belgrade Security Conference (BSC) entitled “In Defence of Humanity” will take place on 18-20 November 2024, at the Sava Center in Belgrade, Serbia.
For the third year in a row, the event will gather prominent world leaders, decision-makers from Serbia and the Western Balkans, diplomats, representatives of international organisations, think-tank experts, journalists, academics, young leaders, and other influential thinkers committed to shaping the present and guiding us towards a better future.
Could the 2024 elections reshape the world order as we know it? Will the elections pave the way for establishing a new, less democratic world order, and will they usher in an era marked by conflicts and heightened polarization? Will the Transatlantic partnership survive this challenge? As Ukraine is entering the third year of a devasting war, will it manage to resist and overturn Russian pressures on the front, or will the war fatigue prevail forcing Kyiv to a negotiating table? What needs to happen to bring a lasting ceasefire in Gaza? Does the EU enlargement by 2030 remain a realistic goal? What would a further change in the geopolitical balance of powers bring to the Western Balkans? These are some of the complex questions that will be discussed at more than fifteen panels.
The BSC 2024 will address all these pressing issues and encourage open and honest discussion, courageous and lucid ideas, and innovative and out-of-the-box solutions.
We are looking forward to welcoming you in November.
