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.

Minority Women: Obstacles to Their Return and Integration
DAUNTING PROSPECTS MINORITY WOMEN: OBSTACLES TO THEIR RETURN AND INTEGRATION UNITED NATIONS HIGH COMMISSIONER FOR REFUGEES with the assistance of the UNITED NATIONS HIGH COMMISSIONER FOR HUMAN RIGHTS (Sarajevo, April 2000) This study was researched and written by Ms. Alice Edwards, with the invaluable assistance in the form of field visits or legal advice of Ms. Sabina Cejovic, Ms. Nefisa Medosevic, Ms. Svetlana Pejdaj, Ms. Ljiljana Santic and Ms. Djurdica Zoric, as well as particularly, Ms. Sirpa Rautio from the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights. 2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In light of the legal obligations of the State and Entity authorities in Bosnia and Herzegovina (“BiH”) under various international conventions to respect the rights of women and to ensure their full development and advancement in society, and considering independent estimates that one household in five is female-headed (20%)1 and women are assessed as the primary income earners in 15% of households, 2 an analysis of the current situation faced by displaced and returnee women, as well as their return and integration potential, is long overdue. Four and a half years since the signing of the General Framework Agreement for Peace (“GFAP”) in December 1995, there is still no systematic gender analysis employed by either international actors or local authorities in their work. While there have been efforts by some international actors in BiH to include a gender analysis and to promote gender equity in the areas covered by this study, in general this has not been the case. There is a clear lack of gender disaggregated statistics and information available.

Elite Social Contract Vs. Everyday Social Contract in Bosnia and Herzegovina
INTERNATIONAL POLICY ANALYSIS Elite Social Contract vs. Everyday Social Contract in Bosnia and Herzegovina ROBERTO BELLONI AND JASMIN RAMOVIĆ December 2018 n Two social contracts exist in Bosnia and Herzegovina today: an ›elite social contract‹ which exploits core conflict issues in order to maintain the status quo and preserve the power of a relatively small clique; and an ›everyday social contract‹ which in- volves citizens trying to make sense of and manage a social and economic environ- ment heavily disrupted by the 1992–1995 war. n Over the last decade, the country has witnessed the emergence of a few grass- roots initiatives aimed at addressing the socio-economic concerns of the population shared across the ethnic spectrum. These initiatives, along with diaspora and some segments of economy challenge the elite social contract and are setting a stage for a resilient national social contract. n Despite the political stalemate in BiH, there are a number of avenues which can be taken to facilitate the three drivers of resilient social contract. n To move towards a more inclusive political settlement (Driver 1) anti-corruption in- itiatives should be encouraged, particularly those aimed at enabling independent judiciary. n To have effective, fair and inclusive institutions (Driver 2) attention should be given to grass-roots initiatives aimed at accountability and service delivery of institu- tions. n To strengthen social cohesion (Driver 3) multi-ethnic parties can play an important role by focusing on issues shared across the ethnic spectrum — such as workers’ rights — together with trade unions and diaspora groups which focus on fair terms of employment.

The special characteristic of the terrain in Bosnia and Herzegovina is the presence of the great number of water streams with the abundance of waterfalls which are adorning the country’s landscape. Their beauty consists of deep and steep canyons, effervescent whirlpools, docile meadows and lush forests which are reflected on the clear and calm surface of the river. Unpolluted water is certainly one of the most important natural resources of Bosnia and Herzegovina. We can rightfully say that Bosnia and Herzegovina is the country of rivers, due to the fact that around 262 rivers flow through it. The most significant rivers in Bosnia and Herzegovina are Sava, Drina, Bosna, Vrbas, Neretva and Una. The specificity of rivers in Bosnia and Herzegovina is also contained in the fact that they compose its natural border – Sava and Una, the greatest part with Croatia on west, Drina with Serbia on the east.
