Director Džananović informed Chairman Okerić about the key projects currently being carried out by the Institute, as well as the challenges the institution will face in the coming period, particularly regarding the further development of research capacities, strengthening international cooperation, and improving material, technical, and human resources.
Chairman Okerić emphasized that the Institute for the Research of Crimes Against Humanity and International Law plays an important role in Bosnian society through scientific research on crimes committed during the aggression against Bosnia and Herzegovina.
"The Institute is one of the key scientific research institutions in Bosnia and Herzegovina, making a significant contribution to preserving legal and historical truth and the culture of remembrance. I particularly want to highlight that the Institute has recently achieved notable results through the implementation of significant scientific projects, publications, and activities. On this occasion, I congratulate Director Džananović on the achievements of the Institute during his tenure. The Sarajevo Canton Assembly and the cantonal institutions recognize the importance of the Institute’s work, and it is important to continue strengthening institutional support for its material, technical, and human resource development," Okerić stated.
Director Džananović presented Chairman Okerić with the latest publications of the Institute and expressed gratitude for the reception and interest in the Institute’s work, emphasizing that the institution continuously works on developing new scientific projects, enhancing international cooperation, and improving research capacities.
"As a member of the University of Sarajevo, the Institute seeks, through scientific research, publications, and projects, to contribute to a better understanding of the causes, nature, and consequences of crimes committed in Bosnia and Herzegovina, as well as to combat the increasingly frequent historical revisionism and attempts to distort established facts. Stronger support from Sarajevo Canton institutions in this process is extremely important for the further development of our research capacities and the implementation of new projects," Džananović said.
