Today we celebrate the 22nd anniversary of the entry of Bosnia and Herzegovina into the Council of Europe, which took place today on April 25th, 2002, and has allowed the country to continue its path in the defence of human rights and the fight against corruption. There is, of course, still much work to be done, for example, discrimination against ethnic minorities (like, the Roma community) or the LGBTQIA+ community, however, the most important shall be to remain focused on helping the country create a stronger and more vibrant society.

We are a politically and religious independent association consociated member of the Norden Association, Föreningen Norden. Norden International is working to assembly and increase communications, collaborations, contacts, and knowledge exchange, between individuals, groups, organizations, and communities, within and between the individual Nordic countries, as well as outward, within the EU and the world. The association strives to mobilize forces in the civil society who cherish democracy and the rule of law, to galvanize dialogue, in order for civil society to mobilize and organize itself and shield the civic society’s expressions. The association works to spread knowledge and formation regarding democracy and human rights in order to create opinion and to protect and empower democracy. Further, we promote the Nordic collaborations and mainly work in an international environment, outwards from the Nordic countries rather than within the Nordics. Our ambition is also to transmit reactions regarding the Nordic relationships and the collaborations homewards, from the international environment. We strive to collaborate with other movements, and we stand behind the international conventions expressed I the United Nations’ Declaration on Human Rights, along with the Council of Europe’s Convention on Human Rights and fundamental rights.

Today is the International Day of Conscience. According to UNESCO, "The General Assembly declared 5 April the International Day of Conscience: conscious of the need for the creation of conditions of stability and well-being and peaceful and friendly relations based on respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms for all without distinction as to race, sex, language or religion. Today, we spotlight Kevin Mwang, the Program Officer at IMLU, and his role in human rights advocacy. To respect and uphold human rights, one must lead a conscientious life.
