CBNA's Global Ambassador and Executive Director Visit Washington D.C.

Our Global Ambassador Dr. Amra Sabic-El-Rayess and Executive Director Selma Porca visited Washington D.C. earlier this week.  During their visit to Washington D.C., they attended a series of meetings on Capitol Hill with our government officials and legislators. They also reconnected with some old friends and established new working relationships and partnerships.

We are very pleased by the warm welcome Dr. Sabic-El-Rayess and Ms. Porca received on Capitol Hill and truly appreciate the opportunity to have a number of constructive and productive meetings with our government officials and legislators.  Dr. Sabic-El-Rayess and Ms. Porca used this opportunity to present our views regarding the concerning situation in Southeast Europe, discrimination against Bosniaks and minorities in the region, and Bosnia and Herzegovina’s path to becoming a fully-functioning European democracy, while ensuring the country’s sovereignty and territorial integrity. 

Both Dr. Sabic-El-Rayess and Ms. Porca look forward to future visits to Washington D.C., as we continue to advocate and promote the visibility of the Bosniak community and its voice within the U.S.
