SARAJEVO, November 22(FENA) - The UK Government has allocated more than 1 million BAM (£500,000) to support communities and authorities in Una-Sana Canton hosting migrants and refugees.
The project ‘Una-Sana Canton Social Cohesion Initiative’ will be implemented by the International Organization for Migration (IOM) from November until the end of March.
The project will support local authorities’ efforts to ensure improved delivery of public goods and services, both to migrants and the local population in Una-Sana Canton.
The project will also support the reparation and revitalization of public spaces, such as the Bihac City Park and the Partisan Memorial Cemetery in Borići.
The project further aims to enhance security by supporting the installation of public lighting on streets in local communities along the Croatian border frequented by transiting migrants and refugees.
The project will reinforce public garbage collection services through the donation of garbage collection trucks to the City of Bihac and Cazin Municipality and provision and installment of small garbage cans, together with additional larger garbage collection containers throughout the city center of Bihać.
The Agreement was signed by H.E. Mr. Matthew Field, British Ambassador to Bosnia and Herzegovina and Mr. Peter Van der Auweraert, IOM Chief of Mission in Bosnia and Herzegovina, stated the IOM.
