Announcing the “Towards 2030” Initiative: Connecting the Western Balkans to Global Conversations
We are thrilled to introduce “Towards 2030,” an exciting new initiative that brings together voices from across the six Western Balkan countries to engage in global discussions on the most pressing issues of our time that will shape our future.
Through this initiative, writers from Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kosovo, Montenegro, North Macedonia, and Serbia will share their unique perspectives on global themes that resonate with international events and days of significance.
“Towards 2030” will feature a series of regional blogs, offering fresh insights on topics such as security, sustainability, democracy, human rights, innovation, climate change and social progress. By aligning these narratives with key global moments, our writers will help bridge the regional unique perspectives to broader global conversations.
This is not just an initiative—it’s a platform for dialogue, an opportunity for the Western Balkans to contribute to worldwide discussions that matter. Join us as we embark on this journey to 2030, amplifying the voices of our region and sparking conversations that span across borders. Stay tuned for thought-provoking content that will inspire, inform, and connect us all! #Towards2030
