The two-day International Scientific Conference “150 Years Since the Herzegovina Uprising: Impact on Regional Security and European Geopolitics”, featuring historians, political scientists, academics, and distinguished experts from Republika Srpska, Serbia, Russia, and France, continued in Trebinje. The conference focuses on the socio-political circumstances preceding the Herzegovina Uprising and its national and historical importance.

The event is organized by the Institute of Historical Sciences of the University of East Sarajevo and the Institute of International Politics and Economics from Belgrade, with the support of the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Technological Development of Serbia and the Ministry of Scientific and Technological Development and Higher Education of Republika Srpska.
