ECMI Civil Society Project in Bosnia and Hercegovina: The Role of Annex 8 in Bridging Communities, Promoting Reconciliation, and Developing a Unique Identity in Bosnia and Hercegovina

Volume: 34 pages, pdf

Description:
 
The goal of the meeting was to identify Annex 8 policy and implementation challenges and opportunities, and to discuss the role of Annex 8 in the peace implementation process. Annex 8 (Agreement on Commission to Preserve National Monuments) is relevant to several aspects of a democratic society, including rule of law development and respect, power-sharing mechanisms, human rights protection, fair, transparent and equitable access to public services, conflict management, refugee return, and development of effective relations between minority and majority populations in a diverse, multiethnic society. As the constitutive workshop on the topic, the participants used the forum as a starting point for identification of further work and research efforts.
