In 2019, the Institution continued to actively cooperate with civil society organizations in Bosnia
and Herzegovina through numerous participations in activities organized by them. Thus, at the
invitation of the non-governmental organization "Perpetuum mobile - Institute for Youth and
Community Development Banja Luka", it participated in the Academy for Political Leaders in
Bosnia and Herzegovina 2018. The program of the Academy for Political Leaders in Bosnia and
Herzegovina aims to train young members from different political parties in the field of political
work and to support a new generation of politicians who will now and in perspective work together
to improve their communities and society as a whole. 558
Ombudsmen also participated in the implementation of the project „Don´t forget!“ by which the
Caritas of the Diocese of Banja Luka and the Caritas of the Diocese of Mostar-Duvno and
Trebinje-Mrkan, with the help of donors from Austria, seek to improve the lives of people with
dementia. The project objective is to improve the quality of life of 370 people with dementia and
their families with innovative offers targeted at people with dementia and structures tailored to
people with dementia in Banja Luka and Mostar regions, given that there are no services for people
with dementia and their families in these areas 559.
