The Academy of Sciences and Arts of Bosnia and Herzegovina (Serbo-Croatian: Akademija nauka i umjetnosti Bosne i Hercegovine; Академија наука и умјетности Босне и Херцеговине) is the national academy of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
[3] The Academy, based in the capital city of Sarajevo, is the leading non-university public research institution in the country.
The Scientific Society continued to operate as the highest-level institution concerned with science until the Assembly of Bosnia and Herzegovina passed a Law on the Academy of Sciences and Arts of Bosnia and Herzegovina in 1966.
[1] The Academy of Sciences and Arts of Bosnia and Herzegovina is charged, pursuant to this Law, with responsibility for the overall development of science and the arts, with organizing scientific research and arts-related events, with publishing papers written by its members and associates, and in general with the state of science and the arts and their development in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
The Academy's Statute governs all aspects of its organization, management and operations in all the fields in which it is active.
