AntiDayton is a patriotic movement and advocacy group in Bosnia and Herzegovina that promotes the restoration of the legal 1992 constitution, with the goals of creating a unitary state (citizen's constitution without ethnic divisions and internal borders) governed under one president, promoting Bosnian-Herzegovinian heritage, strong opposition against the Dayton Agreement,[1][2][3] and advocating for remembrance of genocide victims from the 1991–1995 Bosnian War and campaigning for truth and justice against war criminals.

AntiDayton started as a grassroots activist organisation among local and diaspora Bosnians (especially Bosniaks), with its base on the worldwide social media platform Facebook. It was organized around the concept that the Dayton Agreement, which ended the Bosnian War and provided the current structure and constitution of Bosnia and Herzegovina, was a total failure and an illegal abrogation of the Constitution of the wartime Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Returning to the previous constitution would have abolished the entities of Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Brčko District and Republika Srpska, from which the group sees as only promoting internal divisions and ethnic tensions. The group's first public gathering was in the Sarajevo, under the slogan "Let's bury Dayton, under the ground and concrete!"[4]
