General Information
I graduated history of art and French language and literature from the Zagreb University. I also hold three master degrees: one in marketing and two in European studies (the last one obtained from the College of Europe, Brugge-Natolin). I have many years of experience working in international development cooperation and EU programmes/projects. Currently I am a doctoral student of cultural anthropology and my area of research is integration of refugees into Croatian society.
Mission and Objectives

My goal is to meet new people from the Mediterranean region and the European Union with whom I could cooperate in the areas of cultural understanding, migration, integration of refugees, protection of human rights, as well as in other areas that overlap with the aims of the Anna Lindh Euro-Mediterranean Foundation.

Main Projects / Activities

I initiated and developed a workshop on intercultural learning in Croatia in 201. It was funded by the EU and gathered participants from Bulgaria, Ireland, Poland, Romania, Turkey and the UK. I was also involved in other intercultural projects. My publications related to intercultural projects are 2 papers: „How to keep learners motivated and excited in technology enhanced learning” and “How to motivate adult learners through e-learning" - both written with two colleagues/researchers from the UK and Sweden. I have also participated in the 2nd Alexandria Education Convention organised by the Anna Lindh Foundation in December 2012 in Alexandria, Egypt.

How can you contribute to the Network in your country?

I will regularly attend the meetings of the Croatian Network and will participate in its activities wherever my skills and knowledge proves to be useful to the Network.  

Why do you want to join the ALF Network?

I have already participated in the ALF network through a membership of a Croatian company where I worked until 1st April 2016. I think that this Network is very important for gathering people all over the Mediterranean and Europe who share common values and who can make that the whole Euro-Mediterranean area is a better place for life to all of us.
