What we do as an organization (100-word description)
IAN is a local non governmental organization established in 1997, during the war on the territory of the former Yugoslavia. Huge number of refugees without homes has motivated a lot of international and local organization to provide humanitarian aid for those people. IAN understood that several civil wars in our country would have strong, long term consequences on mental health of all people, especially of refugees and internally displaced people who were under the biggest pressure at that moment.
IAN wants the region of South Eastern Europe to be healed from the consequences of war and political violence and to become a civil society where human rights and well being of all are respected.
