Mirsad Hadžikadić will discuss his experiences in vying for the tripartite presidency in Bosnia and Herzegovina during an event scheduled for 6:30 p.m., Monday, Oct. 22, at UNC Charlotte Center City. A reception will follow the discussion. RSVPs are required for this event, and parking information will be emailed to RSVPs several days prior to the event.
Bosnia and Herzegovina has a complicated three-person presidency whose members collectively serve as head of state.
Hadžikadić, founding executive director of the Data Science Initiative and professor of software and information systems at UNC Charlotte, ran as an independent, moderate candidate instead of accepting a nomination from an existing political party. He finished fourth among the six Bosnian candidates nationwide, but he was third in Sarajevo.
