US and EU Invite Citizens’ Participation in Economic Forum – EU

In a joint message to the public, US Charge d-Affairs Nicholas Hill and EU Special Representative Peter Sorensen invited the public to share their opinions on economic matters via social media, ahead of a two-day conference on BiH and international leaders.

“..we invite you to share your thoughts on how to bring jobs, investment and prosperity to BiH. A Virtual Forum on Prosperity and Jobs in BiH was launched this week on Facebook and Twitter. Please join the online interactive discussion on how best to improve the economy and bring jobs, investment and prosperity to Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Feedback from the Virtual Forum will be collected and used to inform a two-day formal meeting on May 26-27 of leaders and representatives from the government, economic, political, civic, academic, business, and media communities. This Forum on Prosperity and Jobs is organized in cooperation with the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development and they want to hear your opinions too. We need to identify the key economic challenges facing the country and agree on a package of concrete measures to attract investment, broaden access to economic opportunity, spur the creation of jobs and enhance social protection.”
