Journeys of Reconciliation
Bosnia-Herzegovina
May 2004, 2005
The war in Bosnia-Herzegovina in the early 1990s erupted between the Croat (Roman Catholic), Serb (Eastern Orthodox), and Bosnia (Muslim) populations of the country as the former Yugoslavia disintegrated.
The war in Bosnia witnessed some
of the worst atrocities in Europe
since the second World War,
including large-scale ethnic cleansing.
In 1995 following Dayton Accords,
the country began the long process
of rebuilding and reconciliation. On
this trip, we plan to meet those
community leaders who are tirelessly
working to reconstruct and reconcile
the community.
