Mini-Crisis in Bosnia
When over a million people moved en masse through Central Europe in 2015/16, the small, landlocked country of Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) was never part of what became known as “the Western Balkans route”.
Now, two years later, it is the newest destination for thousands of stranded migrants. They come from Syria, Iraq, Turkey, Algeria, Afghanistan and they are still struggling to continue their journeys to Western European. They are becoming ever more desperate, trapped within the borders of Balkan countries, falling prey to criminal groups of human traffickers and smugglers.
Migration management in BiH was not such a complicated task for state authorities during 2017, as just 755 migrants passed through the country. Today, however, the situation is changing fast, with close to 3,000 migrants and refugees on the territory of a country from which, they hope, they will more easily access to the European Union.
In the last three weeks alone, 1,200 persons were reported to have transited Bosnia and Herzegovina. This may not sound much when compared to the huge numbers seen in recent years, but when compared to the numbers that passed through BiH during the entire year, it’s time for the world to wake up and smell the coffee.
Beyond migration management concerns, highlighted by the fact that the official migrant accommodation capacity of BiH is around 200 beds, the situation in the field now has now developed into a humanitarian crisis, albeit with low numbers, but a crisis nonetheless.
Migrants and refugees are sleeping out in the open or in abandoned buildings the capital Sarajevo, as well as in the northwest of the country in the area of Bihac and the town of Velika Kladusa, (the latter being the preferred crossing point into Croatia).
While waiting to make the risky and dangerous attempt to cross, the majority of migrants sleep in the parks of these cities and towns. With spring turning into summer, the rising temperatures, lack of toilets, and deteriorating hygienic conditions, the situation has raised major public health concerns.
However, the local population of affected locations have responded with an outpouring of solidarity, while local volunteer groups are working tirelessly to meet the most urgent humanitarian needs. Many credit their own refugee experiences and the hardships faced by them during the Yugoslav conflicts of 1991-1995 as motivating them to reach out to support those in need. The local population can provide empathy and comfort to the these exhausted people in need, but these citizens cannot continue to carry the burden of the humanitarian response alone.
While waiting for state authorities to draft an urgent action plan that would enable Bosnia and Herzegovina to boost its accommodation capacities and border security, local municipal authorities, Red Cross branches, as well as local and international NGOs, are now stepping in to provide basic assistance with food, hygiene and healthcare in an attempt to prevent the further deterioration of the situation into a larger humanitarian crisis.
In coordination with UNHCR, IOM has also enhanced its response to the ongoing situation, focusing on providing support to local authorities and volunteer groups in the locations where migrants and refugees are currently concentrated and where the needs are most apparent. This support includes urgent basic assistance to the migrants in vulnerable situations that have arrived on the territory.
Assistance comes through mobile IOM migrant protection teams that now operate across the country. As a part of their overall response, the teams provide identified cases with first aid, medical, and psychosocial assistance. Teams are accompanied by an Arabic language interpreter, with interpreters for Farsi, Turkish, Pashto, and Urdu on call. Interpreters are critical in the current situation, particularly in the light of an overall shortage in the entire region, providing critical avenues for communication between the migrants, local service providers and authorities.
In the current situation, IOM also provides temporary accommodation in local hotels or hostels to families and other migrants in vulnerable situations and to refugees. In line with its strategy to support local institutions, IOM additionally purchased urgently medication for medical health centers in Bihac and Velika Kladusa. In Bihac, the IOM response came at the request of the local Mayor to work with the local Red Cross to provide accommodation and sanitary facilities. With numbers continuing to increase on a daily basis, the establishment of an official government accommodation facility remains a top priority, but it could take another month and a half before additional accommodation is secured.

Raghav Bahl – ‘Its Still Not Too Late’ or Already Too-Too Late
Writers view only:
May14, 2018 (C) Ravinder Singh ravinderinvent@gmail.com
Raghav Bahl has highlighted how Indian TRADING & FINANCING of Enterprises is Foreign Owned & Controlled – India Restricts Direct Selling By Farmers & Industry to Consumers.
Raghav Bahl, CEO of TV18 was running Business Stories for 25 years– I was invited to one such TV18 Show moderated by him 4 Years ago – only Professional Inventor Certified by WIPO – I was not allowed even a minute to speak on Industry & R&D – way back in –
1970 – India CRIPPLED PATENT OFFICE when I was in school.
1980 – had reported to GoI that CSIR is doing BOGUS research and filing-Awarding Bogus Patents – Thousand times thereafter TERI and Pitroda do Bogus Research.
1990 – 98% of World Market is outside India – should target 98% of the world market.
2004 – Pitroda is Filing BOGUS Patent – India practically ZERO in IPR.
2011 – Told RBI banks not Providing Loans to SMEs against PROPERTY, but providing Huge Loans to Low Value Addition Enterprises.
Wrecked – Mainly Non Science Education
When TOI reported just 136 Students in Gujarat Board Results were A1 Grade for Science – I quickly computed and posted ‘Out of 15,00,000 Children Born in 2000 in Gujarat, in 2018 Just 136 Passed out in A1 Grade in Science’.
Even in this ‘136 batch’ most will not opt for Engineering or Medicine or Switch to FINANCE & TRADING after Graduation.
I went in to DEPRESSION and am writing after more than 50 hours. I thought I made a decimal error but still was horrible – a state bigger than France or UK or Italy in population could produce just 136 A1 Graders in Science/Year.
FIRST TIME POSTED THE STORY WITHOUT ADDING MY OBSERVATIONS.
We Have Already WRECKED Out Education System that needs ‘25 YEARS from SEEDS to FRUIT Stage’. Mid Stage Intervention possible but not happening.
Pack of Dullards have Mushroomed All Over – More Than 100 Times I had Advocated ‘ROOFTOP SOLAR’ – TO AVOID INVESTING IN EHT, HT & LT TRANSMISSION, STORAGE, TRANSFOMERS IN EHT, HT & LT SUBSTATIONS. But in attached story now we Find Developers insisting on T&D Network to come up first.
Its already too Late or Until India appoints 1. Tech Advisors, 2. S&T Qualified Ministers & Secretaries, 3. R&D in all Large & Medium Industry & 4. Fast Utility Model Patents, 5. Bank Loans to High Value Add Industry & Businesses.

Celebrating Mothers and Newborns
This Mother’s Day, champion Doctors, health workers, and mothers reiterate the need for quality healthcare to ensure every mother and child survive and thrive
NEW DELHI, 13 May 2018: UNICEF India today organized a panel discussion to highlight the importance of celebrating mothers and their newborns. A doctor from Orissa, a front line ASHA worker from Uttar Pradesh, a father from West Bengal, UNICEF Deputy Representative, Ms Henriette Ahrens, UNICEF officiating Chief of Health, Dr. Gagan Gupta and UNICEF Celebrity Advocate Kareena Kapoor Khan, engaged in an hour-long discussion on the need for support all mothers and their newborns so that they survive and thrive.
The event was organized to mark Mother’s Day in the backdrop of UNICEF’s global #EveryChildALIVE campaign.
Globally UNICEF is focused on Every Child Alive, a signature neonatal campaign thatsupports and accelerates UNICEF’s efforts to eliminate preventable neonatal deaths by 2030, with a focus on the girl child. Given that India contributes to nearly one fifth of the global burden of under-five deaths and around a quarter of the global burden of neonatal deaths, this campaign focuses on creating an in-depth discourse around the issues.
Speaking on the occasion, Ms Henriette Ahrens said, “I congratulate the Government of India for their efforts and investments towards Universal Health Coverage, which is well reflected under “Aayushmaan Bharat”. I also salute the team of skilled health workers, who are committed to support every mother and baby with a safe pair of hands,” she added.
Interacting with panelists, Dr. Gagan Gupta said, “India has shown good and consistent progress in reduction of child mortality, with nearly 120,000 fewer under five deaths in 2016 as compared to 2015. However more efforts are needed for reducing neonatal deaths and addressing the gender gap in child survival. Simple interventions like ensuring every newborn is breast fed within the first hour of life can reduce neonatal deaths by 22 per cent. Government is doing its part but it is also our collective responsibility to ensure every child gets the best start in life, truly leaving no one behind.”
Dr. Hota from Malkangiri, Orissa shared his experiences of an arduous 10 km journey-on- foot to reach the nearest Primary Healthcare Centre and save the life of a tribal mother and her newborn. Uma Devi, an ASHA worker from Uttar Pradesh shared how she convinced a mother and her family to take their newborn to a specialized centre for newborns- the nearest Special Newborn Care Unit. A father from West Bengal shared his experiences of providing kangaroo care to his newborn twins and supporting his wife so that she could breastfeed the children.
Kareena Kapoor Khan, shared “When I was pregnant, access to quality healthcare and good doctors and nurses was a given. But this should not just be a privilege for some. Quality healthcare is something that needs to be assured for every mother and every baby, girl or boy, wherever they live. Every mother and every baby has the right to be supported by a safe pair of hands during pregnancy and the newborn period,”
Kapoor also highlighted the need for gender equity and quality, which she said are the next frontiers for newborn survival. “We need to look after our girls just as well as we look after our boys. As females ourselves, it is incredibly sad that baby girls do not always get the same care that baby boys do. If your baby girl becomes unwell, get help for them just as quickly as you would do for a boy,” she said.
Kapoor has been associated with the UNICEF for over five years and has been supporting the discourse around child rights especially in the context of education and more recently around newborn health, nutrition and development.
The discussion concluded on the need for joint efforts of all stakeholders to amplify messages and facilities around neonatal survival. This includes affordable and quality healthcare for every mother and newborn, 24X7 supply of clean water and electricity at health facilities, presence of a skilled health attendant during birth, early initiation of breast feeding and skin-to-skin contact between the mother and child.
About EveryChildALIVE
EveryChildALIVE is UNICEF’s global signature campaign to demand and deliver affordable, quality healthcare solutions for every mother and newborn. More than 80 per cent of newborn deaths are due to prematurity, complications during birth or infections such as pneumonia and sepsis.
