The Sarajevo Security Conference (SSC) was launched in 2023 by the Strategic Analysis Initiative, a nonprofit and nongovernmental think tank based in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina. Since January 2024, both the initiative and the conference have operated under the Western Balkans Center at the New Lines Institute, an independent research and policy organization headquartered in Washington, D.C.

The Sarajevo Security Conference, or SSC, is a unique and dynamic platform dedicated to addressing security and foreign policy challenges. It emphasizes collaborative security, empowers small-state agencies, and fosters widespread support for the Euro-Atlantic perspective of Europe as a whole.
