My name is Aleksandra Miladinovi\u0107 (33) and I live in Markovac, in the municipality of Velika Plana. I studied Psychology and then completed education in Systemic Family Psychotherapy. I am employed at the Rural Cultural Center Markovac (SKCM) as a project manager and at the Secondary School Svilajnac as a psychology teacher. At the SKCM, I am involved in organizing cultural and educational programs, as well as programs aimed at promoting and improving mental health. As a member of SKCM from its very founding, I have been involved in initiatives that link learning and play, art and psychology, books, and psychotherapy. I have organized a large number of psychological and educational workshops for children, various cultural and educational programs for youth and adults, and initiated the establishment of bibliotherapy, which has been held regularly for over three years. Through my work and informal education, I explore the positive effects of the availability of cultural and artistic content from the earliest age on stimulating child development. Together with my colleagues and other community members, I am advocating for the revitalization of the abandoned village cultural center by organizing various advocacy activities. Through this program, I want to address the issue of the accessibility of cultural and educational content, as well as social protection services in rural areas, primarily in Markovac and surrounding villages. Since I grew up and live in Markovac, and have been running various programs in the community for five years, I have a very good understanding of the needs and habits of the local residents, and I believe this experience will make it easier for me to participate in this program.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":20542,"template":"","tema":[244,333],"tip":[235],"class_list":["post-21632","fellowship","type-fellowship","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tema-gender-equality","tema-youth","tip-human-rights-leadership-program-en"],"yoast_head":"\n
