Goran Bubalo was a mainstay in the BiH civil society. If you didn’t know him personally, then you found a job or a seminar to attend thanks to his posts and writing. He was a genuine peacemaker, who did so much for the young and the old for all people in BiH and the region.
During yesterday’s session, the House of Representatives of the BiH Parliamentary Assembly adopted the Proposal of law amending the Law on VAT. The initiative to amend the VAT law, however, dates back to 2016, when the Institute led advocacy efforts to amend the Law, with the support of more than 30,000 business owners.
The measures put in place to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic mean that civil society organizations, and others, are unable to meet in person for the time being. However, we still have the option of holding meetings online, which is faster, cheaper and easier. Today, the Institute for Youth Development KULT and the Youth Council of Republika Srpska held an online meeting dedicated to current youth issues in Republika Srpska, and what the Youth Council did to adapt and continue working through the pandemic.
