The study trip included visits to marked and unmarked sites of suffering related to the Second World War and the wars of the 1990s in the wider Jasenovac and Novska area in Croatia, and that of Donja Gradina, Kozara, Prijedor and Sanski Most in Bosnia and Herzegovina
On the thirtieth anniversary of the abduction and killing of 17 civilians from Sjeverin near Priboj, a funeral service was held and a commemoration in memory of the victims. The commemoration was attended also by peace activists and war veterans from Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Croatia.
The encounter within the project “South Asia – Western Balkan Peacebuilding Exchange” took place in Bosnia and Herzegovina from 26 March to 2 April 2022. The exchange included two parts: optional study trip in Mostar and the workshop held in Sarajevo. The participants of this exchange programme came from India, Manipur/India, Bangladesh, Germany, North Macedonia, Croatia, Serbia and Bosnia-Herzegovina.
From 6 to 10 June 2022, in Blagaj near Mostar, we organised a meeting of war veterans and peace activists
Many topics and questions discussed at the training are taboos in our societies, they are not spoken about, not even in the most intimate circles
It has been 29 years, yet no one has been held responsible for the deaths of eight children in Vitez, killed on 10 June 1993 by a shell fired from the positions of ARBiH. A mixed group of war veterans and peace activists from BiH, Croatia and Serbia visited Vitez today to pay their respects to the child victims.
For the first time, representatives of the two communities and families of victims visited both monuments and paid their respects to the victims on both sides.
At the end of March, we organised an exchange meeting of activists from India and Bangladesh, on the one hand, and Europe, primarily the Balkans, on the other.
The 18th action to mark unmarked sites of suffering (ONMS) was carried out in February 2022 in the Brčko District of BiH
