Hi! I am Marija, an international politics and diplomacy student from Skopje.
Since I was 13, I have been passionate about giving back to my community. This led me to volunteer and become an activist for human rights and civic responsibility, exploring many opportunities through youth exchanges and workshops.
Environmental protection is my main focus, driving me to find innovative local solutions. Now, I am a social entrepreneur: CEO of O-krug, turning orange peel waste into products while employing marginalized youth; CMO of Mamaorgana, addressing food waste; and co-founder of eco-habitat.com, Macedonia’s first platform for eco-friendly products.
As Helen Keller said, ‘Alone, we can do so little; together, we can do so much!’
