The agreement between the two organizations is expected to pave the way for joint scientific and technical activities. It aims to consolidate efforts and resources to achieve the long-term objective of a dedicated Serbian outpost on the southernmost continent. This move could enhance Serbia's international scientific standing and provide its researchers with vital opportunities for fieldwork and data collection in an extreme environment.
