THE ORGANIZING TEAM
The organizing team consist of six motivated students at UWCiM, who have been working hard to realize this short course and will be there to help and guide you through every step. We have introduced ourselves below.
Nouf K. Saleh
​
Ello!! I'm Nouf K. Saleh from Yemen. Throughout the short course I will be managing the Finances. I'll try to make sure our budget and expenses stay parallel. Last year I was a participant at a UWC short program; I had such a great experience and met incredible people from different countries. I had lots of fun and learned a lot about the Balkans and other countries I didn't know much about. I am very happy to be part of the organizing team this year; it's been a different experience to approach the same project from a new position. It's overwhelming and exciting. It will be astounding, CAN'T wait to meet you all soon.
Emina-Ema Ibisevic​
Hello everybody! I'm Emina-Ema, 17 years old and come from Bosnia and Herzegovina. As I was part of the last-year's short course organization team and had a wonderful experience, I decided to make a project like this come true again this summer. While setting up the short course I was in charge of fundraising and once you've applied I will help you with getting your visas. During the short course I will be available to everybody who needs help and I will be in charge of communication. I am very enthusiastic about this new experience and I am looking forward to meeting you all this summer.

Greetings! I'm Nadia Asri, I'm 17 and I'm half English, half Moroccan. I'm going to be a facilitator during the short course. I've had experience facilitating in the past, and I believe whole heartedly in the goals set for this short course. I am very excited about this short course, it has been amazing experience watching it grow from a seed of idea inside somebody's head to a real-life plan, and I hope everybody will be as thrilled as I am to be a part of this. I hope this will be an experience for us all to learn from each other and to grow together, and I'm very much looking forward to meeting you all in August!
Bono Siebelink​

I’m Bono Siebelink, 17 years old and from the Netherlands. During the Short Course, I’ll be active in providing all of us practical stuff, such as a place to sleep or transportation to the places we want to go to. I’m glad that I can be part of this great course this year, as I would really like to know how a small group of optimistic people will be working on planning improvements; both short and long term. This is all new for me, but I believe in the value of this idea. I’m looking forward to meeting this great group of people and seeing all your different perspectives!
Ruby Ellen Tode​
​
I'm Ruby Ellen, I'm 18 years old, from Amsterdam and half Irish, half Dutch. I will be doing the Public Relations for this short couse. Two years ago I attended a short course in the Netherlands, which eventually led me here, to UWC Mostar. Since I could walk I have been helping my dad out with photography and film: developing our own pictures in the "dark room" and helping out with his assignments. I love photography and being creative. Together with this group of people we set up something amazing, and I cannot wait to meet the people who will be enabeling this course!
Malak AlSayyad​
Hello Everyone!​
I'm Malak from Cairo, Egypt and I decided to help organize this course, because I believe that there is so much you can learn and share with each other by coming together and exploring each other's ideas and prespectives.
I will be facilitating at this course and have had alot of experience with this in the past. I will also be in charge of much of our outward communication.
Looking forward to this course and to our wonderful participants and facilitators.
