The international action day "Freedom not Fear" will be marked in as many European capital cities as possible and elsewhere around the world to demonstrate against the total retention of telecommunication data and other instruments of surveillance.

We would like to recall the remembrance of the historical achievement of civil rights and liberties as a heritage of the Age of Enlightenment and to support the trust in security in our free society.

Macedonia will join this international campaign through activities organized in Skopje on the 10th and 11th of October;


During the first event (on Friday) a panel of renowned legal and other experts will hold public discussion, alongside activities to distribute information to students of the University Ss. Cyril and Methodius. Download the agenda with a list of invited guests.

The second event (on Saturday) will include distribution of leaflets and posters, as well as excerpts from the Law on Protection of Personal Data of Republic of Macedonia. A stand will be set up for the citizens to receive more information and where they will have opportunity to record statements about their feelings on surveillance, which will then be posted online.

The second event will be organized in the capital's center by the Metamorphosis Foundation, the Directorate for personal data protection, Forum for European Journalism Students, Foundation Open Society Institute - Macedonia , European Law Students' Association - Macedonia, the Youth Educational Forum, the Macedonian Center for European Education and the Internet Hotline Provider - Macedonia.
