World Vision has been working in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) since 1994, first providing relief to a war-torn country and then working on community development. For over three decades, we provided sustainable livelihoods to the disadvantaged and needy, improved quality of education, and empowered families and communities to seek access to their rights. Child protection and participation are at the core of our work on all levels. WV BiH engages with children and families empowering them to engage in decision-making processes, as active seekers of services they are entitled to. We collaborate with decision-makers and service providers to improve child welfare systems and advocate for long term system-level solution that have the best interest of the child in focus.
