The Commissioner for Information of Public Importance and Personal Data Protection hosted participants of “Vojin Dimitrijevic” Human Rights School organized by the Belgrade Centre for Human Rights.

High school students from Zajecar, Novi Pazar, Leskovac, Becej and Obrenovac visited the Commissioner. They were introduced to the functioning of the Commissioner's Office, activities and challenges in the work of independent institutions. Representatives of the Commissioner's Office presented the legal framework and characteristic cases from the Commissioner's practice in the field of the right to free access to information of public importance and the right to personal data protection.

It was a two-way discussion, and the participants had numerous questions and concerns about the exercise and protection of these rights in Serbia. Particular attention was paid to the issue of the relationship between the right to free access to information of public importance and the right to personal data protection and examples of justified limitation of these rights.
