Second Dialogue Platform Conference

Three UN agencies - UNDP, UNICEF and UNESCO - will host the second Dialogue Platform Conference “Youth. Culture. Education” within the joint project “Dialogue for the Future” implemented in co-operation with the Presidency of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

During the first Dialogue Platform Conference held in April 2015, some of the key issues about education, the status of culture and cultural workers were raised. Conclusions stated that a better future for youth requires a joint communication between individuals, NGOs and student organisations on the one hand, and representatives of government institutions on the other.

Building on these results, this Second Conference of the Dialogue Platform will draw attention to key thematic areas, to establish a two-way communication, to define clear and concise conclusions, and to define recommendations for future work.

Thematic groups will include 70 participants, representatives of government institutions in BiH, young activists, academic and teaching staff, the ministries of culture, education and other relevant institutions, the civil society organisations, religious communities, and implementers of various projects supported by the UN Project “Dialogue for the Future”.
