Where are human rights in Serbia?

Statistics show that more than 80 percent of Serbian citizens believe that the state does not provide adequate health care. As many as 91 percent of citizens believe that the state fights against domestic violence ineffectively, and last year alone, 25 women were killed in domestic violence. And while 69 percent of citizens believe that LGBTQ+ people should have the same rights as all other citizens of Serbia, only 47 percent of them believe that Serbia should adopt a law on same-sex unions that would legally regulate a whole range of rights for the LGBT population in Serbia. More than 70 percent of citizens believe that their personal data is not adequately protected on the Internet, and over 80 percent of them believe that hate speech is present in the public sphere.

These are only some of the data that we got from a research done on a sample od 10000 Serbian citizens.
