The Coalition “To Work and Succeed Together”
With the support of Open Society Fund of Bosnia and Herzegovina, The Center for Promoting Civil Society launched the “Initiative for developing the Strategy of Sustainable Development of the Non- Governmental Sector in Bosnia and Herzegovina” in 2001. A coalition of CSO was build around this initiative under the motto “To Work and Succeed Together”. The coalition today gathers 300 CSGOs from all parts of Bosnia and Herzegovina through 15 regional reference groups. In 2004, the Coalition organized a series of round-table discussions about the problems facing the civil society. In this process the following strategic documents were drafted and then endorsed in a NGO conference in Sarajevo in December 2004:
- Agreement on Cooperation between the Ministers Council BiH and the Non-Governmental Sector;
- Standards of Quality of Cooperation between the Government and the Non-Governmental Sector in BiH;
- Code of Conduct for the Non-Governmental Sector in BiH; and
- Strategic Directions of Development of the Non-Governmental Sector in BiH.
