Within the NIRA project and with the aim of greater involvement of young people and women in politics and advocacy in BiH, the TPO Foundation has implemented a number of activities for young people throughout BiH. After trainings on personal and professional development and advocacy for young people, which aimed to improve the skills and competencies of young people in public speaking, critical thinking and project writing, TPO Foundation published a public call entitled "Women, Youth and Politics", intended for all citizens between aged between 18 and 35 to apply by project applications with an initiative aimed at the promotion and affirmation of young people and women in politics in BiH.
