Along with the entire region of Southeastern Europe, Serbia is facing a new challenge, most aptly referred to as The Process of European Integration. As a consequence, the Heinrich Boll Foundation is engaged in stimulating the forces that would assist this process as much as possible. Economic and social challenges are not the only challenges imposed by the European integrations. International dialogue in the Southeastern Europe region has been strongly influenced by the realities of the past two decades, a period marked by wars and conflicts that have changed demographic, economic, and political reality of this part of the Europe, which is now aiming at becoming a part of a much larger community.
With its 27 representative offices, The Heinrich Boll Foundation is present all across the globe. In the Southeastern European region we are present in Belgrade, Sarajevo and Zagreb. Through a network of our offices together with a network of our local partner organizations, we are striving to promote dialogue across borders. As a factory of “green ideas”, we stimulate new concepts, share knowledge and open dialogue on all subjects relevant to our work, both locally and globally: equal opportunities, promotion of democratic thinking, support to environmental policies and sustainable development.
