Andreja Rihter, the Director of the Forum of Slavic Cultures, stated, “This anniversary is not only a time to reflect on our rich history but also an opportunity to express our gratitude to the individuals and organizations that have supported us over the years. The Forum has implemented numerous projects, ranging from publications and exhibitions to international conferences. Through our collective efforts, we have fostered cultural exchanges and strengthened ties between nations.”
She also highlighted the publication of the 100th book in the 100 Slavic Novels collection and the 10th anniversary of the Živa Award.
To mark the 10th anniversary of the Živa Award, the Minister of Culture of Serbia and President of the FSK Board announced a new initiative to introduce a monetary component to the award. This enhancement aims to further recognize innovation in heritage preservation and provide fresh inspiration for museology in its ongoing efforts to engage and attract new audiences.
