**FIRST EUPHAM STAKEHOLDER WORKSHOP HELD**

In light of International Migrants Day celebrated on December 18 each year, we are happy to be able to contribute to raising awareness and highlighting the challenges people on the move face all over the globe.

This is why the First Eupham - European Union Public Health and Migrations Stakeholder Workshop, co-financed by the European Union and under the Jean Monnet Module framework, was designed to bring together government and NGO actors in light of the most important health hazards, financial, social, and legal issues people on the move face in Bosnia-Herzegovina.

With the extremely valuable input and expertise shared by the Danish Refugee Council Bosnia and Herzegovina and especially Dr. Marko Isajlovic who has been one of the most prominent EUPHAM collaborators from day one, in addition to Professor Maja Savic-Bojanic and Professor Semira Galijašević as project coordinators, workshop participants learned about the importance of widespread collaboration among government and non-government stakeholders, specifically reflecting upon the recent pandemic, as well as other health hazards accompanying frequently overpopulated health centers.

The second part of the workshop engaged all participants in a discussion on jurisdiction transfer to public institutions, enabling a more direct and rapid response. Thank you to all participants, including the representatives of the Ministry of Human Rights and Refugees of Bosnia-Herzegovina and other NGOs for bringing their experience and input to the table.

Looking forward to next year's Module!

!! Our EUPHAM Summer School has proudly claimed its first participants! !!

With yesterday's lecture on international health regulations and today's round-up of Bosnia-Herzegovina's complex public health system, EUPHAM has concluded its first summer school edition.

Five days of health care professionals, field workers, and academics dealing with migration discussing, along with students, NGO representatives, and health workers, the intricacies of current public health policies, with many case studies and real-life examples, trying to grasp what could be the way forward and what are the main challenges for individuals on the move.

A big thank you goes to all our participants for taking part in this important EUPHAM initiative – we have many more milestones to go.

EUPHAM Summer School would not be possible without the dedication and professionalism of Danish Refugee Council Bosnia and Herzegovina, as well as representatives from IOM Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Looking forward to next year!

Summer is in full swing, as is our European Public Health and Migrations Summer School!

Medicine and political science students, migrant health workers and PhD candidates participated to this intense five-day course, ending tomorrow with the certificates for all attendees.

Offering a unique introspective view to the policy implications, humanitarian hazards, geopolitical context, individual case studies of endangered groups and interactive games providing a real, yet frightening perspective of sacrifices it takes to cross the border, first edition of School completes the first year of extremely successful Eupham - European Union Public Health and Migrations Jean Monnet Module, under the auspices of the Erasmus+ European Union program. Gathering academics, as well as educated and experienced field workers deeply involved in the current Bosnian-Herzegovinian national and international immigrant situation and context, summer school lectures and discussions were all about establishing facts, shifting stereotypes and raising awareness of the continuing health and humanitarian migrant crisis challenging capacities of B-H health institutions, with policy concerns and lack of sustainable state initiative raised.

Field trip to migrant camp in Blazuj, as well as a moving and educational visit to the War Childhood Museum still resonates with all participants – on an arduous and often lethal journey people on the move go through, and deep psychological traces of war trauma to an individual.

Kudos to our friends and partners from the Danish Refugee Council Bosnia and Herzegovina for their professional insights, lectures and help, as well as the colleagues from the IOM Bosnia and Herzegovina for sharing their knowledge with our participants.

Still an exciting two days to go!

May and June editions of EUPHAM lectures were more oriented towards the medical aspect of migration and migratory patterns, with special emphasis on metacontext and global health problematics within the world health framework. The topics covered within this cycle were, among others, international health regulations, communicable and non-communicable diseases and global health, epidemic and pandemic response, evaluations of health programs and health regulations and policies and migrations in Bosnia, being one of the European hotspots for migratory trajectories.

Special emphasis and a very interesting lecture were given on ethics in research and biomedicine, which closely connects to a broad scope of various ethical dilemmas concerning the treatment of migrants within the public health networks. Students were given examples and asked to reflect on various situations, as much attention was given specifically to the hands-on approach on all topics.

With Summer School just around the corner, we are looking forward to wrapping up this engaging semester in an engaging manner.

See you in July!

The second cycle of EUPHAM lectures has been held on April 21 and 22, with Dr. Marko Isajlović from The second cycle of EUPHAM lectures has been held on April 21 and 22, with Dr. Marko Isajlović from The second cycle of EUPHAM lectures has been held on April 21 and 22, with Dr. Marko Isajlović from Danish Refugee Council Bosnia and Herzegovina having a two-day session with EUPHAM students.

Migratory patterns leave severe impact on both physical and mental wellbeing. Things like medical assistance and documentation are crucial aspects that tie into policies and public health organizational principles.

Danish Refugee Council Bosnia and Herzegovina plays an enormous role in providing professional assistance and recognizing boiling points in food, shelter, water, sanitation and hygiene supplies.

With help of Dr. Isajlović, EUPHAM students have experienced the perils of being a person of the move and challenges they face daily in accumulating health-related issues. It was a rewarding and interesting experience having a true expert from practice, who was able to share with us real-life knowledge and know-how procedures.

Next sessions are coming up in May.
