THE FIRST ANNIVERSARY OF TRADE UNION’S WEB PORTAL
WWW.GSMNEZAVISNOST.ORG.YU

THE SPACE IS EXPANDING – AND SO ARE WE

Belgrade, November 11, 2007
A new unionist form of informing and two-way communications, promoted by the MWBU ‘’Nezavisnost’’ a year ago, with originally conceptualized web portal in Serbian and English language, became an example of European mode of two-way communication of trade union with members and the public, with other trade union headquarters in Serbia and neighboring countries in the Region, which are, unfortunately, lagging behind to a great extent in this respect. The Serbian version of web portal www.gsmnezavisnost.org.yu started on October 9, 2006 and the English version started on October 27, 2006. In a period of one year the web site was visited by over 42.000 visitors from our country and abroad. The site of MWBU ‘’Nezavisnost’’ is permanently served by four colleagues with periodical participation of other unionists, regional correspondents and with programmer support of ‘’Canatlantic.’’
