Bosnia and Herzegovina: The Quest for Change
Embracing the Message of the Platform for Progress Movement
As the Platform for Progress Movement continues to establish roots throughout Bosnia and Herzegovina it is becoming more and more evident that the message of change is being embraced. Mirsad Hadzikadic says there is a sense of a return to the days of the campaign with more and more appearances and town hall type events being scheduled. The difference now is these appearances are being requested by others not the Movement seeking out these opportunities. Most recently there was a town hall meeting in Zenica, and a keynote address at a scientific conference in Mostar. Conversations have picked up with individuals from other parties who now want to become a part of the Movement. Elsewhere in Europe meetings are planned in Austria, to organize the movement with the local diaspora and speak at another scientific conference, as well as a planned speech in Sweden at an event devoted to Independence Day of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Other trips are planned to Norway and a return to Switzerland. Mirsad and I spoke about the significance of this new and growing emergence momentum.
