Sažetak
The Croatian Association of Prisoners in Serbian Concentration Camps was founded in Zagreb in 1995. Nowadays the Association has thirteen regional offices and six branches. This paper reviews the Osijek-Baranja County Branch founded on May 9, 2000. Even though the original aim was to improve the living conditions and to achieve the goals of social and legal protection of former detainees in the camp, the Association continually and greatly promotes the values of The Homeland War through the cultural and musical program Remembrance and through numerous other cultural and sport activities. Cooperating with the academic community, artists and athletes, and involving teachers and elementary and high school students in their programs, Croatian Association of Prisoners in Serbian Concentration Camps is particularly focused on educational activities so that the difficult and traumatic themes of the Homeland War can be brought over to the school population in an appropriate way. The paper analyzes the thematic and content-related activities of the Association in the period from 2008 to 2018, which points to the importance of the activities of this veterans’ association in terms of educational work.
