"Design Activism" Lecture in Banja Luka

Prior to the official opening of the Tolerance Poster Show in Banja Luka, Bosnia and Herzegovina, on October 22nd, 2022, I held a lecture on the importance of designer activism in the Museum of Contemporary Art in Banja Luka, attended by students, professors and cultural operators from all sectors.


We want to extend our gratitude to Edin Atlic, Project Leader at the EU Info Centre in BiH and Sarita Vujković, director of the Museum of Contemporary Art of Republic of Srpska.


The lecture and the tolerance poster show are realized to mark 2022 – the European Year of Youth. They are supported by the European Union in Bosnia and Herzegovina & the EU Info Centre in BiH.
