The Commission for Coordination of Youth Affairs in BiH, on the occasion of the International Day of Youth, shall symbolically forward the initiative for drafting and passing of the Law on Volunteer Work - Volunteerism in BiH.

Volunteer work – volunteering has an increasing role in the modern society, particularly in BiH, where in this way every person has the possibility to work for the benefit of the community, to be useful and do good, while developing themselves personally and finding their place within the society. Volunteers, in terms of those acting on a voluntary basis without any self-interest, in our country also have the opportunity to acquire working habits and influence the changes in the society, while themselves developing into responsible and active citizens.
