Regional Youth Cooperation Office (RYCO), together with Pulse Balkans, UG Nešto Više, and other partners, hosted the RISE Local Forum in Sarajevo. The event gathered institutional representatives, civil society, businesses, and young social entrepreneurs to explore how social entrepreneurship can boost youth employment, strengthen communities, and enhance regional cooperation.
The Forum featured opening remarks, inspiring RISE alumni stories, an interactive discussion on the current state of youth and social entrepreneurship, and a workshop mapping key challenges and opportunities for youth-led ventures.
The Sarajevo Forum marked the close of one RISE cycle and the beginning of a new collaboration, reaffirming social entrepreneurship as a force for solidarity, innovation, and positive change in the Western Balkans.
