In the period from April 8 to April 12, 2016. representatives of the Turkish humanitarian organization IHH paid a visit to capacities of IFS-EMMAUS in Klokotnica and Srebrenica, Potocari.

As the IFS-EMMAUS is a partner organization of IHH in Bosnia and Herzegovina for many years now, the visit was used to tour some of the projects that IFS-EMMAUS implemented with the help of donors from Turkey.
