In
summer 2006, European movement initiated the project
"Electing the Women's government". Voters of the
Blic magazine helped to choose 21 out of 161 candidates for
the ministry positions in the "women's government".
The purpose of the action was to present that in Serbia exist
women with high expertise who can get involved in every aspect
of political and social science of Serbia.
At the end of the summer
2006 Serbia got the first women government. On the September
1st, the OEBS ambassador in Serbia, H. E. Hans Ola Ustard,
organized the cocktail party in the OEBS main office. The main
attraction on this cocktail was women's government. This was
their opportunity to met each other, and exchange their
opinions related to the whole action.
WOMEN’S
VIEW ON POLITICS:
Women’s
Government on Convention
First
meeting was held on September 26th 2006, where for the
first time in the working atmosphere, the members of the
women's government gathered. This was the opportunity
for them to recapitulate the results of this project.
They have emphasized the need to do the project for the
future of women's government. The present female members
considered the possibility of solving practical
problems: naming the female ministers, operative and
logistic questions related to the function of the
women's government.
The following meeting of the woman's
government was held on October 11th 2006. At this
occasion they decided to contact the runner-ups for the
female ministers election. Women's government decided to
promote the women's potential of expertise as their main
mission. In collaboration with the daily magazine
"Blic" they arranged to have the column which
will be called "From our point of view". They
made a schedule of time and place when their future
meetings will be held. The need to work on "Para
diplomatic role" was pointed. Informal meeting of
the women's government was held on October 14th 2006.
They made a decision to have the runner ups join the
woman's government as female co-ministers (Alternate
ministers).They would have the same status as the other
female ministers, which means, they would have the same
participation in the work of the women's government.
Fourth meeting of the women's government was held on
October 26, 2006. The female co-ministers were a part of
this meeting. They established that the collaboration
with the medias has to be increased.
I want to express my admiration and gratitude for
your wish to see and hear the woman's point of
view on the society that is special only because
women are better carriers of the tradition, but
carriers of modern and progressive ideas in the
same time. The main goal of the woman's
government is to point out, illuminate and show
a part of the Serbian population whose standards
are: competence, tolerance, stability, civilized
communication and respect. Even though there are
no ideals, we want to reach them. The way to do
that is to work on ourselves, become conscious
of ourselves and get to know our divine nature.
No one is perfect enough; we should always aim
to be more perfect. Self-consciousness,
functioning with the full capacity it's what we
aspire for. On the field of the tricky business
(politics), we couldn't tame from its very
beginning by now. As an expression for the
impotence we acclaimed the paradoxical
definition. "Politics is the possibility of
the impossible and the impossibility of the
possible". Women's point of view on the
politics is completely different, and for them
politics is "the art of managing our
relationships". Unfortunately political
disfigure has lead that politics nowadays is a
complete mess in Serbia. Scientists, moralists,
artists are becoming political servants. I am
terrified with the fact that every year we need
October 5th.
Eager triumph of education, knowledge, and
raciness mindfullness a very politeness. They
deserve to have all these years, decades,
centuries.
