The presentation also included detailed information about the project, such as the number of participants, the local communities involved across Bosnia and Herzegovina, and the partner organizations working with schools through educational and creative youth engagement.
Empowering Youth and Educators Across Bosnia and Herzegovina
This two-year initiative aims to lay the groundwork for a paradigm shift in peacebuilding in BiH. Its focus is on empowering a new generation of young leaders in the field of peacebuilding, while also strengthening the capacities of young peace activists in more than 20 municipalities and cities across the country. The project will also support a significant number of educators from over 30 local communities in developing peace education skills they can pass on to future generations of students.
