Summary/Abstract: After the fall of Yugoslav multiculturalism, finalized during the wars in 1990s, Bosnia and Herzegovina reestablishes balance between its three big ethnical enclaves. In times of its European Union approaching, youth Bosnians organize themselves in variety of non-governmental organizations, funded and logistically leaded by European Union programs. In the article I analyze special characteristics of Bosnian multiculturalism in the light of previous incidents, combining it with the European Union encourage programs and implementations of new shapes and outcomes of so called European multiculturalism. It is mostly distributed through different non-governmental organizations and I focus on three of them: Telex (Tuzla), CreActiv (Banja Luka) and Dosta! (Mostar).
