The International Centre for Democratic Transition recently published its first edition of the ICDT Paper Series. The report Minorities in Transition in South, Central, and Eastern Europe is the outcome of the Minorities in Transition project, which aimed to identify the role of minorities in transition processes as well as the policies, legal structures and best practices to support minority rights in South, Central and Eastern Europe.

The content of the ICDT Papers series is based on the lessons learned from the ICDT projects implemented in countries undergoing democratic transition. The series summarize the input of civil society leaders, politicians and scholars. Its primary focus is to draw concrete lessons from the transitions and to offer policy recommendations for the future. The ICDT Papers are disseminated to policy makers all over the world.
