For over ten years, Svitac has worked to use the arts to bring about reconciliation within the Brčko community, as well as strengthening local young people’s connection to the rest of the world and letting them indulge their creativity.

We organise summer camps for the children of Brčko every year, and are currently in the process of purchasing a permanent home for our activities and their administration.

Aims

• To encourage communication and cooperation among young people living in separated areas of Brčko through educational and recreational activities, programs, and events.
• To provide opportunities for young people to develop professional and creative skills, and to allow them to develop and lead their own projects.
• To develop links between youth groups throughout Bosnia and Europe.
• To develop understanding and tolerance between people of different backgrounds and nationalities.
• To complete the localisation of Svitac through sustainable, local funding and a permanent space for its functions.
