Council of the Carinthian Slovenes

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Council of Carinthian Slovenians ( Slovenian Narodni svet koroških Slovencev , abbreviation NSKS ) is an association representing the interests of the Carinthian Slovenes .

The Council of Carinthian Slovenes came into being in 1949 around the Hermagoras Brotherhood . He is close to the Catholic Church, while the Central Association of Slovene Organizations in Carinthia was formed in 1955 in the context of the KPÖ and the SPÖ . In 2003 the community of Carinthian Slovenes split off from the Council and sees itself as non-partisan. Due to a budget cut, the council faced dissolution in 2010.

The council works with the central association in a coordination committee and together they publish the Slovenian weekly newspaper Novice .
