The University of Sarajevo received the “HR Excellence in Research Award”

We are pleased to share the news that the University of Sarajevo received the “HR Excellence in Research Award.”

The award is granted by the European Commission to research institutions that have made significant progress in implementing the European Charter for Researchers and the Principle for the Employment of Researchers, which adhere to the documents and standards prescribed by the European Union in relation to the working conditions and employment of researchers, and whose recruitment procedures are harmonized with European.

In order to harmonize the vision of human resources development at the University of Sarajevo with the European Charter for Researchers and the Code of Conduct for the Recruitment of Researchers, the University of Sarajevo signed the Charter and Principals in 2016, and later submitted an application for recognition “Excellence in research.”  Application submission preceded the development of the Internal Deficiency Analysis and Human Resources Strategy for Researchers (HRS4R) with the Action Plan.

With the positive assessment of our application, the European Commission recognized the efforts of the University of Sarajevo to provide better conditions for the work and employment of researchers at the University of Sarajevo. The recognition is certainly significant for the University of Sarajevo, but it also represents a commitment because it implies the efforts and activities of all bodies and organizational units of the University of Sarajevo to implement measures from the Action Plan for the Implementation of the Human Resources Strategy for Researchers (HRS4R) of the University of Sarajevo.
