“Today, we are celebrating girls and young women who are overcoming everything that is, directly or indirectly, set as an obstacle to reshare, reeducate, or literally destroy them.

We are thankful for that!," said Marijana Savić, director of Atina at the conference "How we are creating better opportunities and chances for girls on the move" that took place in Belgrade.
