Young people in Bosnia and Herzegovina are like young people everywhere except that their country is still recovering from war. Many still feel the trauma of what they experienced as children.
As well as the direct effects of being in a war, there are many day-to-day problems of growing up in a country where just about everything was destroyed or disrupted. Schools are still badly affected and jobs are hard to get.
Since the 1992-1995 war ended, the situation for young people in the nation has deteriorated, rather than improved. Of course there are many gifted and talented young people in Bosnia and Herzegovina, but those who are able to leave, tend to do so. We believe it is better for the nation if they stay, and carve a better future.
