AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Press Freedom & Law: Bojana Davitkovska reflects on how North Macedonia’s journalist protection fight has shifted from classic defamation cases to SLAPP suits and coordinated online pressure. Demographics & Schools: Education Minister Vesna Janevska says first-grade enrolment for 2026-27 is already far below last year, with shrinking cohorts forcing fewer classes and possible closures of small rural schools. Film & Awards: Sarajevo Film Festival’s top prizes went to Sandra Wollner’s Everytime (Heart of Sarajevo for best narrative feature) and other major wins for 17—a strong week for regional cinema. Art Exhibition: Bosnian painter Amer Hadžić opened solo show “WHATEVER” at Kavadarci Museum Gallery in North Macedonia, blending memory, architecture and pop culture. Sports Media & Regional Reach: MRT is listed among broadcasters covering Mediterranean Games Taranto 2026, with wider EBU partners expanding coverage across Europe and North Africa. Football Coaching: Cristian Fabbiani ends his short Vardar stint in North Macedonia, cutting ties just two months into the job.
