Interview:
Marija Bulat, president of International Student Week in Belgrade, ISWiB
2010
I
am proud of ISWiB team
We
prepared for this year's ISWiB for about nine months. We had a team of about 30
people and delegation of responsibilities was done through sectors. Sometimes
it was full of strain, but above all it was a pleasure to stand in front of this
team. Even though my position evolves management I want to emphasize that it was
more a cooperation and that I am very proud of all these young people who invested
their time and energy and with a lot of enthusiasm organized this festival...

Upon
arriving at ISWiB I was pleasantly surprised by the scope of the term "International",
however, I soon realised I gravitate towards the Balkaners, the ex-Yugoslavs,
to be precise. Having a common language is important when you wish to share a
joke with someone, or to comment on a song blaring out of somebody's car; also,
when you realise that people understand your curses, it forces you to be a little
more decent By MATKO CERNIAR from
Rijeka, CROATIA Participant of ISWiB 2010
ISWiB 2010 - Educational part
Do
we tolerate intolerance? Derek
Small held an open lecture at this year's festival on July 13th. Speaking about
what is possible when young people learn to overcome their personal challenges
and become the best they could be, professor Small was committed to the idea that
there is more that unites us than that which divides us and we should focus more
on those similarities than on the differences By SAŠKA DIMITROVSKA from
Skopje, MACEDONIA Participant of ISWiB 2010
Music, parties, fun

of traditions is Country Fair taking place every year. On the fourth day participants
were asked to prepare their national stands in Kalemegdan park. Each team prepared
their traditional snacks, beverages to share with other participants and visitors
as well as pictures, brochures and presentations to be shown. Some ISWiBers went
even further than that by taking on their national dresses and performing dances
accompanied by others playing traditional instruments. Later on MTV concert took
