We assisted in “Connecting the Dots”
The NGO “Naša djeca” (Our Children) engaged us to help them devise the promotion of an important project called “Connecting the Dots” within a short timeframe and with limited resources. This project focuses on the rights of children in Bosnia and Herzegovina, which are often overlooked by those who should ensure them. Therefore, 18 groups of children and youth conducted research in their communities, selecting topics related to the right to quality education for all, mental health protection for children, and meaningful use of free time.
We proposed and produced four Q&A sessions on children’s rights, involving the children and youth participating in the project and experts in early growth and development, digital marketing, and child and youth protection. Additionally, we implemented a TikTok campaign and prepared numerous short video materials suitable for distribution on Instagram and TikTok.

Strategy for anti-corruption teams
PRIME Communications was selected through a tender issued by OSCE in BiH to analyze existing relevant documents and data collected through research and capacity assessment studies and develop public relations strategies for anti-corruption teams in BiH.
Through a series of consultative sessions that included an educational component on public relations and trends in the field, as well as consultations with media representatives and non-governmental organization representatives, the draft strategy was defined, taking into account the structure of the strategy and the opportunities it should highlight for the teams. We ensured that the developed PR strategies align with the needs and capacities of the anti-corruption teams and comply with existing laws, regulations, and relevant legal acts, decisions, and policies.
