I study International Relations at the Faculty of Political Science in Belgrade. Journalism is a sphere where I have been active for five years, now working primarily with Local Press and DWA. I am a certificated MIL educator, too. Being one of the young leaders in the campaign \u2018Media Content for The Young\u2019 was a step towards what I currently work on \u2013 forming Young Media Network, which will be the first regional youth media network in the Balkans. As I find institutionalization important, I finished the Academy of Youth Policies organized by the National Youth Council of Serbia to gain the necessary knowledge. <br>I use my social media profiles to spread the word about everything I learn. Sharing is not only caring but also the goal. Proud of being a Balkan boy, I have a strong desire to make the Balkans a better and safer place for everybody. However, young generations and minorities are my top priority.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Instagram<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Linkedin<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Country: Serbia Interests: EU integration, Environmental protection, Human rights My name is Lazar Simi\u0107 and I am a student, media worker, researcher and activist.
