As part of the observance of December 9th – International Anti-Corruption Day, the OSCE Mission in Bosnia and Herzegovina organized a conference on December 11th, 2024, in Sarajevo, titled: “The Role of Citizens in Anti-Corruption Processes.”
The conference gathered over 60 representatives from institutions across BiH, non-governmental and international organizations, academic institutions, as well as citizens and youth. Representatives from the Agency for the Prevention of Corruption and Coordination of the Fight Against Corruption (APIK) also participated in the event.
The goal of the conference was to emphasize the importance of citizen participation in the fight against corruption, the ways in which citizens can combat corruption, and how through dialogue, training, and the development of strategies, they can contribute to combating corruption.
The conference provided participants with a platform to assess the current state of the fight against corruption in BiH, as well as to discuss the tools, support, and resources necessary for active citizen, media, civil society organization, and institutional participation in the fight against corruption. Additionally, mechanisms for reporting corruption were presented, with a special focus on the very important role of citizen participation in the fight against corruption.
