The Association for Serbian language and literature in Croatia (Serbo-Croatian: Друштво за српски језик и књижевност у Хрватској, Društvo za srpski jezik i književnost u Hrvatskoj) is a non-profit professional organization that brings together scientists and technical workers engaged in studying and teaching of Serbian language and literature in Croatia.
The association was established in 1998, after the completion of the UNTAES mission in the region, with ambition to work on protection of the Serbian language and the literature of Serbs in Croatia, engage in the study of the history and culture of the Serb people in Croatia, and present its cultural heritage.
[3] The founding group led by the president Mara Bekić-Vojinović was influenced by the death of Stanko Korać in 1994, prolific researcher of Serb literature in Croatia, and determination to look for continuation of his work which led to the establishment of the initial contact with Dušan Ivanić.
[3][4] In early 2011, the association released the inaugural edition of the Proceedings, which was presented at various schools and institutions in Croatia and the surrounding region.
[2] The publication of the book was financially supported by the municipalities of Vukovar, Trpinja, Markušica, Šodolovci, Erdut, as well as through private donations.
