Overview
The Social Democrats of Bosnia and Herzegovina (Bosnian: Socijaldemokrate Bosne i Hercegovine (SD BiH) / Социјалдемократе Босне и Херцеговине) is a social-democratic political party in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
History
The Social Democrats of Bosnia and Herzegovina (SD BiH) were formed in Tuzla, Bosnia and Herzegovina on 7 September 2019. The party was formed after disagreements within the membership of the Social Democratic Party. Founder Enver Bijedić was chosen as president of the SD BiH.
The party currently has two seats in the Tuzla Cantonal Assembly. In September 2023, Bijedić decided to leave the party after months of intra-party conflicts, which culminated in him getting succeeded as president.
Ideology
Much like the Social Democratic Party, the Social Democrats are a left-wing democratic party. The program vision corresponds to values and ideas of social democracy in Europe and the world. The SD BiH is a civic party that is particularly interested in improving the social status of workers, rural population, students, youth, veterans, women, pensioners and citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina in the diaspora.
