Creating Conditions for the Return of Young Educated Professionals and PhDs to Bosnia and Herzegovina

On Saturday, October 26, 2024, Kajs Hadžić will join fellow experts and professionals at a roundtable discussion organized by the Academy of Sciences and Arts of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The focus will be on exploring strategies for encouraging the return of young, educated professionals and PhD holders to their homeland.

Objective of the Roundtable: To develop sustainable strategies for the return of experts through collaboration between academia, industry, and the government.

At BH Futures Foundation, we believe in connecting young professionals from the diaspora with innovative opportunities in Bosnia and Herzegovina, helping to elevate our country through their expertise and contributions.

For years, our foundation has been actively supporting scientific and research initiatives. For example, our 3MT (3 Minute Thesis) competition allows young researchers to condense complex projects into clear and engaging presentations. In addition, the prestigious Vera Šnajder Award recognizes outstanding young researchers. Through initiatives like VSRC (Virtual School of Research Communication), we offer online training that helps young researchers improve their presentation skills and effectively communicate their findings. These programs play a critical role in strengthening the scientific community both in Bosnia and Herzegovina and beyond.
