International day of women, 8th of March is an occasion for International Initiative of Women in Bosnia and Herzegovina BISER International to traditionally nominate woman and man of the year.
Our association promulgates and acknowledges distinguished people of public, cultural, social, political and economic life in Bosnia and Herzegovina since 1998. They are “quiet stars” which we choose without political or any other sort of pressure. This acknowledgment is a result of special engagement and obvious effort invested by laureates for political, economic and cultural prosperity of our country and our mission is to recognize and prefer these true values.
Since the year 2000 this acknowledgment is also given for gender most sensible man of the year.
Solemn proclamation of woman and man of the year is preformed in BISER’s MUSA women’s centre, Kasindolska 23, Sarajevo on the 7th or 8th of March at the party organized to honor laureates for that year.
