COLLABORATION
As Nermina's Chance nears publication, I'm very pleased to announce my collaboration with two remarkable non-profit organizations serving people traumatized and displaced by war, as well as the detrimental impact of political, economic, and social unrest.
MOST MIRA (Bridge of Peace) helps to build bridges between divided communities in Bosnia. Their annual peace-building program brings together young adults, from the Balkan region and beyond, to find common ground for reconciliation.
