The 2001 Summer University took place in Novi Sad and Belgrade from July 13 till July 25. It was organized by the NGO Next Stop (Belgrade), NGO Next Stop Serbia (Copenhagen), The Student Union of the Law University (Belgrade), and the NGO Most from Belgrade. It hosted 135 students, from countries such as Yugoslavia, Denmark, Norway, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and FYR Macedonia.

The lectures took place at Novi Sad's Law school. The University included 5 separate courses:

- The Psychology of Peace and Democracy

- The Influence of Media in Forming the Public Opinion

- Ecology

- Anthropology and Film

- Human Rights

The activities had been organized as lectures, educational workshops, debates, group-work and discussions.

Although the utterance has been put on the academic life, social life went on as well: sports contests, and parties at the Strand (NS), karaoke nights, swimming in the Danube, EXIT...

Every goal to which the SU had been set aside for, was fulfilled:

- attendants had the opportunity to deepen their knowledge about various themes. Especially guests from  

  Scandinavian countries, who had the opportunity to get the better view about the situation in South-Eastern 

  Europe in the past decade,

- the foundation for further cooperation between the attendants and  institutions they represent had been set,

- the international networking was created - the first Next Stop Serbia projects had been created in Denmark, 

  and their aim was Serbia, but the project started to spread around surrounding countries,

- bringing down cultural boundaries was, doubtlessly, the complete success.

The initial restrains in communication between the attendants had been substituted with open-heartedness and new friendships. Conversations went on from political subjects, to music, film, everyday life...
