The “Our Women” exhibition opened last night in Bihać by the Historical Museum of BiH & cultural partners, under @UNPeacebuilding’s #WomenLeadBiH, highlighting often invisible yet vital women’s roles, stories & legacy within the historical context of post-war periods in 🇧🇦.
From Vareš tonight: leadership is local & community‑rooted. Association Zvijezda Vareš, led by Adisa, shows what courage & commitment can achieve—despite funding & service gaps in remote areas. Grateful for the Ramadan iftar and honest dialogue. 🌙✨ @unwomenbih
