For their assistance with conducting interviews, we are grateful to BOSPO, a Tuzla NGO, and IPTF and OSCE in Prijedor Municipality. ii EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1. INTRODUCTION UNHCR conducted a Returnee Monitoring Framework (RMF) study in the Republika Srpska (RS) between 5 January and 3 March 2000. A total of 194 interviews were carried out, covering 30 villages or towns within 12 municipalities, with minority returnees to the RS who had either fully returned or were in the process of return. The purpose of the this study was to gauge the national protection afforded to minority returnees to the RS, the living conditions of returnees, as well as the positive and negative factors which affect the sustainability of return. For example, interviewees were asked questions about security, schools, pensions, health care, etc. Through the 194 interviews, UNHCR was able to obtain information on 681 persons. Broken down by ethnicity, there were 657 Bosniacs, 13 Bosnian Croats, and 11 Other which included Serbs in mixed marriages, people of mixed ethnicity and several people of other nationalities who had immigrated to BH before the conflict. 20% of the study group was over 60 years old (elderly), 54% was between the ages of 19-59, 20% was school age (7-18 years), and 6% was 0-6 years old.

The main objective of this work is to get an insight into urban and peri-urban agriculture (UPA) in Bosnia with a focus on legal and regulatory framework, governance, and advisory services’ role. Information were collected by a literature review and semi-structured interviews of 30 urban gardeners as well as extension agents and municipal officers in Sarajevo region. The paper analyses references to UPA in the main agricultural development policies in Bosnia; assesses focus on UPA by extension agents; and analyses urban planning and zoning regulations and budget dedicated to agriculture in many municipalities of Sarajevo region. Semi-structured interviews focused also on economic, environmental, aesthetical and social benefits of UPA.

Considering defined subject of the research, the general goal of the paper is evaluation of the economic development position of underdeveloped areas communities of Tuzla Canton in the cantonal economy and opportunities of improving their development.The research hypothesis of the paper reads: intensification of investments and changes in the economic structure of communities in an undeveloped areas of Tuzla Canton will significantly improve their development, thus the level of development of the Canton. The results showed significant differences in the regional development of the Tuzla Canton. Analysis of the data confirmed that the Tuzla Canton has quality of socio-economic basis for more intensive development and overcoming problems of unequal development, which is reflected in the substantial capacity of natural resources, favorable geo-climatic location, developed infrastructure, etc.

Cousens* This symposium asks "what makes peace agreements work" and specifically directs us to explore the degree to which and how "quasi- sovereigns" determine the answer. At a minimum, a peace agreement could be said to "work" when formerly warring parties honor their commitments more than they renege, and when a broader constituency develops within post-war society to support that agreement's basic provisions. Along both dimensions, the peace agreement providing the framework for politics in Bosnia today works haltingly at best.' The explanation for its inadequacies has very little to do with quasi-sovereignty, however. Rather, it has a great deal to do with the decisions and actions of the all-too-sovereign national governments and major international agencies that enjoy a disproportionate influence over the implementation of the peace agreement's key provisions.

  • Role of Microfinance in the Household Reconstruction Process in Bosnia and Herzegovina
    MFC Spotlight Note #6 Role of Microfinance in the Household Reconstruction Process in Bosnia and Herzegovina Michal Matul and Caroline Tsilikounas1 January 2004 INTRODUCTION This note presents summary of findings from the study conducted within Imp-Act project2 on the role of micro-enterprise lending in the household reconstruction process during 1996-2002 in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH)3. This research is one of the first of its kind to examine the impact of minimalist micro- enterprise credit on reconstruction. Additionally, because microfinance is still a young and fast learning industry, this study is meant to help engage in a debate about impact of microfinance on reconstruction. It can also contribute to putting forward some propositions to be tested in other post-conflict settings in order to widen the pool of microfinance recipients, and consequently the impact of microfinance on household reconstruction. Many organisations have introduced microfinance as part of their larger portfolio of programming activities aimed at reconstruction and revitalisation of war-torn communities in BiH. The level of international support providing political stability and basic economic security has been high as compared to the African post-war experience4. This in turn has aided the climate for sound microfinance programming and has provided a stable back-drop for their development and growth5. Given that microfinance in the specific environment of BiH during the reconstruction period (1996-2002) was limited to the provision of micro- enterprise credit, the goal of this research is to understand the role played by micro-enterprise credit in household reconstruction. An analysis of multiplier effects and impacts of microfinance at the macro-level goes much beyond the scope of this research.

Šimunoviæ Mostar University School of Medicine, Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina Aim. To present a model of teaching general practice to medical students as a part of care for refugees in Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina. Method. With an international support, 33 medical students (from the third study year on) participated in a total of 51 field visits to 4 refugee camps near Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina, over a period of two years. Some students made more than 30 visits. Together with residents in family medicine at the Mostar University Hospital, the students per- formed physical examinations and small interventions, and distributed packs of different pharmaceutical agents to ref- ugees. At the end of the project, participants were surveyed to assess the benefits of the program. Results. Thirty out of 33 participating students responded to the survey. Fourteen students said that “the opportunity to do something, however small, for the people” was the main benefit from the project, whereas 5 thought that meeting “a real patient” early in their medical studies was very beneficial. The students assisted in 1,302 physical examinations, an average of 25± 8 examinations per visit. The most requested physical examination was blood pressure measure- ment (52%), followed by chest auscultation (24%) and psychological counseling (16%). They also helped with a total of 320 minor procedures, an average of 6± 2 per visit. Among the procedures, wound care and dressing were most common (63.4%), followed by nursing care procedures (20%) and minor surgical procedures (suture removal, abscess drainage, and bed sores débridement) in 6.9% of the cases.
