The program was opened by Amina Krvavac, director of the War Childhood Museum in Bosnia and Herzegovina, who highlighted the significance of the Museum's work in the contemporary global context. "This year we have achieved great results despite the unfavorable global situation. According to statistics, every fifth child lives in a conflict-affected area, making our work more relevant than ever," said Krvavac. Young participants in peacebuilding programs, who traveled from Bratunac, Prnjavor, and Sarajevo for the occasion, also addressed the attendees, sharing their experiences and perspectives on the importance of peace education in local communities. Researcher Viktoriia Nesterenko from Ukraine spoke about the process of collecting items during the ongoing war, while researchers from Palestine joined via video call, providing insight into documenting childhood in the context of contemporary conflicts. The Museum's founder, Jasminko Haliloviฤ‡, discussed with international guests the possibilities for further development and international expansion of the Museum. The program was complemented by a performance of appropriate songs by the mixed choir "Seljo." This central event is part of a broader program organized by the Museum from April 13 to April 17, 2026. During this week, visitors are granted free admission, along with a rich schedule of peacebuilding workshops and other educational activities. The War Childhood Museum invited all visitors to join in commemorating the anniversary and to visit the Museum for free, as its collection continuously documents and preserves the experiences of childhood in war.
