Bosnia and Herzegovina is a postconflict nation challenged with interethnic reconciliation. This study sought to understand the views of Bosniak (Muslim) youths on their schooling experiences in Srebrenica. Their voices can provide meaningful insights into the reality of the segregated education system and the role of schools in affecting social cohesion. The data were primarily collected through 10 focus-group interviews with Bosniak youths. Study participants appreciated the religious subject of Islam, while expressing discomfort and resentment at being separated from their classmates in other ethnonational subjects (history/geography and language). They generally appreciated learning with the Serb students in an integrated environment. The study indicates that these youths developed a resilient attitude to claim the normality of their school life, despite the existing interethnic tensions and the resulting segregated system. The study also affirms the important role of the secondary school as a place of interaction and intercultural learning.

冲突后斯雷布雷尼察的综合学校和社会凝聚力：波斯尼亚青年对其学校教育经历的看法

波斯尼亚和黑塞哥维那是一个面临种族间和解挑战的冲突后国家。本研究旨在了解波斯尼亚克族（穆斯林）青年对他们在斯雷布雷尼察的求学经历的看法。他们的声音可以对隔离教育制度的现实以及学校在影响社会凝聚力方面的作用提供有意义的见解。数据主要是通过对波斯尼亚青年的 10 次焦点小组访谈收集的。研究参与者欣赏伊斯兰教的宗教主题，同时对与其他民族学科（历史/地理和语言）的同学分开表示不适和怨恨。他们普遍喜欢在综合环境中与塞尔维亚学生一起学习。研究表明，尽管存在种族间紧张局势和由此产生的隔离制度，但这些年轻人形成了一种坚韧的态度，要求他们的学校生活正常化。该研究还肯定了中学作为互动和跨文化学习场所的重要作用。
