A nation redefining itself

As travelers, we all form preconceived notions about the places we visit. Sometimes these notions are precise, sometimes they stray from reality. When THINK Global School arrived in Bosnia & Herzegovina in 2016, our accompanying students and staff weren’t entirely sure what they were about to experience. To their surprise, they left profoundly changed by the people they met, the landscapes they explored, and the ideas they discussed.

Bosnia is a country reimagining itself, a country distancing itself from the civil unrest that tore it apart in the early nineties. During their time here, student projects examine the past, present, and future of this heart-shaped land by focusing on the reconcilation process. The term includes visits to Srebrenica, the site of the conflict’s worst massacre, and Mostar, a beautiful city that is still largely divided.

ON HIS PIVOTAL BOSNIA EXPERIENCE:

“I was really affected by what happened in Srebrenica. After that weekend trip, I realized how one-sided that war was. Now I’ve looked into attaining an international law degree. I want to be able to change injustices like that. It’s a driving force now. It’s not just standing behind something and saying I support it. It’s going further, and I really want to do something and help the people in Bosnia. Not to just have justice, but to work together in moving forward.”
