“useful insight into Bosnian society”

General Impression

Overall Rating:    9 / 10

It was a very interesting experience. I had a chance to work side by side with international and local volunteers, as well as with the staff of a local NGO.

Country

Meeting the local staff, as well as the local volunteers, provided me with a very useful insight into Bosnian society.

Project & Staff

The project was about community-building and peace-building, and most activities were specifically designed in this sense. I really appreciated the staff's availability and kindness, as well as their commitment to include volunteers in designing daily activities

Tips

Don't be afraid to ask when you're uncertain about something;
Have a non-judgemental approach (Bosnian society and recent history are very complicated and, in a way, problematic);
Bring your own creativity and enthusiasm!
