Dear friends of the Peace Academy,

We are hereby announcing that this year's Post-Yugoslav Peace Academy will be held in the beginning of autumn and will have a different format. Due to financial reasons, we were obliged to shorten this year's summer school to three working days and to plan it at a different time.

We will inform you about the dates, courses and means of applying to this year's Post-Yugoslav Peace Academy as soon as possible through our web page www.mirovna-akademija.org, newsletter and Facebook page. We wish you an enjoyable summer.

Greetings from the PAF team!

Ubleha for idiots

    The highest ranking Ublehaš of some (wealthy) state.

They tend to finance almost anything that is well-packed into everything that is listed in this guide, with a particular focus on community development (See), democracy (See) and human rights (See).
