The Foundation was established by activists gathered around the Youth Initiative for Human Rights throughout the Balkan region. The aim of this endeavor is to strengthen the youth capacities on the local level, to support the progressive individuals and organizations in their strivings to reform the societies of the former Yugoslavia, and to strengthen local philanthropy of the youth and their regional cooperation. »»

As a part of Bosnia Trust Project (BTP), that is organized by the Youth Initiative for Human Rights with partnering organisations in five Bosnian regions, trust build schools are started. Over 100 youth has taken part in these schools, coming from different communities. After the seminar, in cooperation with the partnering organisations, the youth from the school have developed their own projects that YIHR supports using the means from the project fund. Besides, the program had over 100 participants from Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Kosovo and Montenegro, fostering, in that way regional cooperation. Trust is being built between the new generations through common work visits and common actions. ''Our plan is to continue this way, and to work on regional connecting and connection of the young within the Bosnia and Herzegovina. Relations between the people who live in the same country have been interrupted and destroyed, and never have been actually built up again. It was either because of the war, or continuation of nationalistic politics'', Amela Suljic, a director of YIHR Office in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Ms. Suljic added that over a couple of hundreds of young people participated in YIHR actions in Bosnia and she announced even more intense work next year. Otherwise, the PTB project was supported by the Embassy of United Kingdom in Bosnia and Herzegovina. »»
