Sofija Nešković
Sofija is proud coordinator of this enthusiastic team. She is a 22 years old graphic design student with interests in photography and illustration who doesn’t like being called an artist. With big smile on her face, she is covering the fact that she is actually big control freak very passionate about tiniest details. She claims that happiness is a warm blanket. The count of the countries she has visited is larger than the count of her age. When she is not traveling, she is always planning it, and on every “Let’s go?” she answers with “Let’s go”.
Tijana Miličić
A legal trainee by day and (a very sleepy) law student by night. Tijana is a proud IntCom team coordinator. Her friends usually describe her as ambitious, creative and sometimes a bit of a control-freak, but she sees herself as rather fLAWless (pun intended). She lives her life following the 3P rule: pasta, prosecco and pro-choice. Her dream is to retire in a small house near the sea, cultivating oranges.
Jelena Nikolić
Jelena is 22 years old student of Operations Management at the Faculty of Organizational Sciences. She was a volunteer for 2 years and now is part of IntCom team for the second time. She loves to sleep, binge-watch series and anime, always ready to party. The thing she loves the most is her dog Deni and her motto is: grind now so later your dogs can have the backyard they deserve.
Jovana Sekulić
Jovana is currently pursuing her Master’s degree in Immunology at University of Belgrade and she is beyond flattered to be a part of IntCom team. When she isn’t glued to the books she loves spending time with her dog, learning Turkish, reading about astrology and trying very hard not to ask about your time of birth. Thanks to her moon in Pisces she describes herself as a dreamer who believes that kindness will save the world.
Marija Mitić
Marija is a student of japanology, but no, she didn’t watch Naruto. She is in the best state of mind when it’s 30 degrees outside, when she has something sweet to eat and when she is swamped with work. Marija is a feminist and incurable optimist who is constantly in a hurry, and this is her 1st experience at World Youth Wave as a part of IntCom team.
Milica Popović
Milica is a 25 years old master’s student at the Faculty of Philology in Belgrade. She describes herself this way: I trust the energy I feel. My soul’s got cute little wings that take me to so many beautiful experiences - ISWiB is one of them and I can’t wait to see how amazing this journey will be! In love with nature, music, languages and diversity. Creating extraordinary moments in day-to-day life. A thing to remember: This world needs more warm hugs.
Marko Pijevac
Student at the Faculty of Philology and Faculty of Economics in Belgrade.This is his first experience at World Youth Wave and it’s biggest project - ISWiB . He loves travelling, meeting new people and learning foreign languages. Yes, he is 1.92 meters tall. No, he doesn’t play basketball. The weather is perfect up there. He’s so glad we had this conversation.
Sonja Mijatović
Sonja doesn't know how old she is, because she doesn't believe in time. She doesn't even believe in rules, so she invents reality the way it suits her. Her greatest love is people. Sonja believes in goodness of people, love at first sight and miracles. Her point of view is always pink and her motto is- Viva La Vida.
Katarina Rajković
Katarina is 22 years old, she is studying Operations management at the Faculty of organizational sciences. Although you may remember her from interviews in march as a part of the INTCOM team, she wanted to try something new and is now a member of the EDU team. Before all this, her first encounter with ISWiB was when she was a volunteer in 2019, where she fell in love with the people, the diversity and all the international love. Katarina is very talkative and friendly and a master of dad jokes. Her passion is dance and listening to music. Besides spending time in the nature, hiking and climbing, she also enjoys cozying up to a movie or a book, after a long day. She believes that the best education is travelling, exploring various cultures and meeting new people.
Tijana Krstić
Tijana is a 22 year old student of Faculty of Security Studies in Belgrade. She still doesn't know what she will be when she grows up (ignore the height of 195cm). Every so often she will ask you a million questions, probably all of which will be foolish, so get used to it in time. She’s not exactly a morning type of person, so if you see her grumpy and silent in the morning, give her some time and she’ll make up for it by the end of the day by constantly talking about everything. And most importantly, she’s always ready for some chocolate!
Sanja Stojiljković
Whatever I might say about myself, your impression of me will have the crucial role in the way you perceive me - until then!
Ksenija Stojićević
Ksenija was named after the first Serbian philosopher - and that was probably her first step towards her destiny of being a psychology student of the Faculty of Philosophy. She loves music, summer and the sea and she is the happiest when people close to her are happy and healthy.
Emilija Ničić
A student at the Faculty of Political Sciences, but the knowledge seeker in everything and above. Youth worker by profession and in her spare time crazy about marketing and PR, an eternal dreamer and the coffee drinking champion. A walking paradox planning everything in her life down to the last detail and suffering from organization, but still managing to be late always and everywhere. Saggitarius in her subsign won't let her breathe until she gets what she wants, naturally if Libra as her main sign decides what that actually is. She loves people, water, and lollipops. Something she appreciates the most about people is their loyalty, she believes in equality, nonviolence, and that mindset is the reason for everything in life. As the only measure of success in life she admits the fact that you have a smile on your face even if you are left with no one but yourself.
Anja Radovanović
She is 22 years old, fourth year of studies at Faculty of Transport and Traffic Engineering.
She is interested in marketing and pr and acting. She leads instagram profile under name @arrticoka, which is focused on raising awarness of harmful ingridients in cosmetic products. She is looking forward to her first ISWIB experience and she can't wait to wear black shirt on the festival!
Jovana Jović
A 20 y/o student at the Faculty of Organizational Sciences and completely new in the ISWiB family. A couple of years ago, she launched her own portal edited by young people from the Balkans and gained useful experiences in the field of media. Her goal is to try out different positions in management in the coming period and find what suits her. She is ready to study, she doesn't hold her place - she loves when she’s on the move and will probably never stop dreaming, even though it takes her half a day.
Petar Vitković
Petar is a 20 y/o student of Management at Faculty of Organisational Sciences in Belgrade. He finds himself a true hellenophile, a TED Talks addict, and a big fan of fiesta&siesta. Could be described as "I'll be there in 5 minutes" person, cause, obviously, he won't. Very ambitious, curious and creative. Says: "I just got an idea, let's start a business" probably 3 times a day.
Jelena Bratić
Jelena studies international relations at the Faculty of Political Sciences and likes to surround herself with obligations and good company. She is 20 years old and believes in life long learning of humankind, and in addition to the faculty, she enjoys taking part in youth activism through several youth organizations. Since last year, she can be called an entrepreneur, because she started a start-up with her friends, which aims to raise awareness about the harmfulness of fast fashion and its impact on the environment. She loves working with people, and that is her goal for the future, to always be in a positive work environment and work with people. Don't believe her when she says, "I won't be late!"
Mina Metić
Mina was born on December 12th, and this year she’s the youngest member of ORG team aka ISWiB baby. One year ago she was an Info&Host volunteer and back then she fall in love with ISWiB. She nurtures love towards fashion and makeup and loves hanging out with her friends.
Ana Zlatković
Ana is a student at Faculty of organizational sciences, the final year, and at the beginning of my career in Project management. A huge part of my life were and are my hobbies- Serbian national dance (folklor) and music- even my dream as a teenager was to become a conductor. Still, I chose completely different life path. Passionate traveler, and a huge lover of everything that contains a word "international". When I would have only one wish from a gold fish that would be to travel the whole world. My biggest talent are my organizational skills, and biggest (anti)talent is cooking. Huge love for ISWIB was born during my volunteer days two years in the row, and now I would like to improve my skills in WYV, making every event organized by us unforgettable for all the people that are included.
Ilija Terzić
My name is Ilija Terzić and I am a student of Faculty of Organizational Sciences. I try to be above average in everything I do and that’s why I am at my studies for 6 instead of regular 4 years. I’ve been a member of World Youth Wave since the end of January 2021st, but my first experience with this organization was at ISWiB 2019. where I was a “Group Guide” volunteer. I’m also a member of another international student organization – ESTIEM. When I hang out with World Youth Wave friends, they tease me that I am ESTIEM sectarian. When I hang out with ESTIEM friends they accuse me of betraying ESTIEM by joining World Youth Wave. I’m just trying to fit in. My Zodiac signs are Gemini-Leo-Libra and I have no idea what that means. I’m one of the characters of Milica Milošević’s sitcom.
Stefan Milošević
This is Stefan. He was born on September 4, 1998. Stefan is an information systems engineer and is currently studying economics.He is a member of the FR team in accordance with the entrepreneurial spirit and personal interests.
Tamara Milanović
Tamara is a graduate of Information Technology School. This year she will be coordinating IT team, which she very much looks forward to. Tamara loves travelling, good sarcasm, plot-twist thrillers and something sweet to eat. Her horoscope sign is Aries, which is one of the best signs, for those of you who don't know astrology.
Dušan Dotlić
Hi! I am Dušan Dotlić. I am a member of the IT team here at ISWiB. I have been studying IT since 2013, when I joined an Electrotechnical High School in Belgrade. Now I am at the Singidunum University, again, studying IT 😀 This is my second year organizing ISWiB and I am excited to see what this year will bring. I came here to meet new people so come talk to me if you see me during the events! I would love to hear everything about YOU and your culture! Can't wait to show you guys everything my Belgrade has to offer!
Nikolina Marković
Nikolina is 22 years old student of Software Engineering at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and this is her first ISWIB experience. She can't imagine a day without music and sweets. She prefers theatre to cinema. Scorpio in the horoscope who likes to meet new people, but doesn’t like to talk about herself, so even this was too much for her.
Filip Radosavljević
Filip is 22 years old and studies information systems and technologies at the Faculty of Organizational Sciences in Belgrade. He likes to read, train and design / program a bit. He enjoys hanging out with people, has a habit of talking a lot and is always open and honest. One day he would like to be an entrepreneur, to write a book that would help other people but at the same time he would want one house in the middle of the forest without anyone anywhere. His horoscope sign is Cancer (no, he doesn't like to show emotions and almost never cries), his favorite color is blue.
Nataša Mihailović
Nataša is a 22 year old animation student at the Faculty of applied arts in Belgrade. Besides animation and illustration she is passionate about various forms of art, movies, and travelling. She gets crazy eyes when pollution, ecology or human rights are mentioned in a conversation.

Jana Perišić
Jana Perišić is born on 27th February 1997. Throughout the years Jana realized how much it meant to love and appreciate yourself and because of this, she's thrilled about this year's organization theme, which is mental health and #iaprreciateme program! It's her first volunteering experience and she's ecstatic that this adventure is a part of the SOT. She is also a part of a terrific and enthusiastic design team. Jana is a big fan of RHCP, adores Marvel and DC movies, enjoys great food and is a mom to the goofiest dog in the world named Frea. She studies graphic design and cannot wait to become an independent and successful young lady.
Emilija Kostić
They say that Emilija looks like she would personally block someone from entering a town, and then send them a telegraph that says so, that she surely goes out every Saturday to a cafe with her boyfriend and presents him with an excel spreadsheet outlining all the bad things that he did last Saturday, while still being a mixture of an artist and nuclear physicist. In reality, she is a laid-back, friendly and creative Aquarius with an adventurous spirit.
Strahinja Djordjević
Strahinja is studying Software and Data engineering. Interested in many different things like drawing, making music, astronomy, making films, forging… He is in love with extreme sports and history. One of his favorite things is medieval sword fighting and he is a practitioner. As a organizer he is 4 years in ISWiB and he loves it. He is open and loves to meet new people. Big fan of music and dancing. His quote: “Live fast, die last.”
Božidar Tančić
Božidar is a 23-year-old graduate in economics from Belgrade Banking Academy, with a major in Banking, Finance, and Insurance. Currently, he is working in a family company as a manager while he is pursuing his dream to continue his master's degree abroad. This is his 4th year in World Youth Wave, the first 2 years he was performing the role of a group guide while in the last 2 he is conducting the role of the event organizer to which he is very devoted. In his free time, he likes to do sports, travel, build scale models, occasionally work as a fashion model, and to read all those war and sci-fi books! He finds himself as a born entrepreneur and eagerly waits to put all his experiences and knowledge into a business that he will start one day! Always ready to socialize, have fun, go out, be spontaneous, find adventures, and to seek discomfort.
Andjela Miković
Andjela is finishing her bachelor degree in tourism. This is her fourth year in World Youth Wave. She believes in seeking discomfort, and is hoping to find her true passion. She loves the feeling of sun on her skin and swimming in the sea. She loves staying up all night gazing at stars and waiting for that perfect sunrise. She loves learning, but hasn’t quite yet mastered the art of good organizational skills. “La vie en rose” is something she wishes never to forget. Oh and did I mention that she loves pink color?
Mihailo Đorđević
Mihailo Đorđević, student of Information technologies. Born and raised in Belgrade, dreaming of travelling the whole world. As of today has been on 4 continents.
Interested in programming and internet security, the biggest fan of BC Partizan Belgrade. After two yellow T-shirts looking forward to put the black one on!
Milica Milošević
Milica is a member of the event team and makes one half of the clumsy duo alongside her twin Jelena. She is a procrastinating perfectionist and would say her life resembles a sitcom (she’s probably the character the audience laughs at for all the wrong reasons, but hey - she’s just happy for the screen time). She quotes How I Met Your Mother at ANY given chance and finds her confidence in channeling her inner drag queen. Some may remember her from the most recent ISWIB as the smiling sunburnt group guide with yellow sunglasses and huge bags under her eyes. She just wants you to know that the bags are genetic, okay?!
Jelena Milošević
She goes by the alias of Lisbeth Salander, (a fictional character from her favourite books) in who she finds inspiration to reach for self-growth and strength no matter the odds put against her.
She's a true Pisces - emotional and looking at the world and what it has to offer with heart eyes. Technology taking over humanity is what she dreads, so she tries to enjoy her youth exploring and loving simple things. If you see her laughing by herself, don't mind her, she's thinking of a meme or of an embarrasing memory of her and her friends. The color blue is what she is mesmerized by and movies have a special place in her heart.
Jovana Vasić
Jovana is a part of the exceptional HR four, who holds this (whole) family together. She is naturally energetic person with bright spirit and her friends would say that she's crazy in a good way. She doesn't leave the house without putting her perfume on, she always has her watch and planner besides her, but despite of that she's always a little late. Jovana studies management and is sure that it's the direction which she aspires to build a career in. However, her biggest love is music and dance. She enjoys making surprises and presents for dear people. If you ask her what her birthday wish is, very likely that the answer will be a horse. One day she would love to have a farm and establish a humanitarian organization.
Sara Oluić
Sara is a person who is fascinated by a view from a rearview mirror, especially when it is sunset. She has recently discovered that she is in love with old castles and fortresses, let's say "places which are full of historical ongoings". If Sara didn’t study management she would deal with archeology which is odd because she is not in history that much for now. On the other hand, she is always enchanted with antiquities which are full of enigmatic stories. Sara is very sensitive when it comes to cute old couples, English Bulldogs, her friends and Valjevo (hometown). If you want to make Sara happy at first sight you need to do high five with her or to hug her. Do not hesitate, she is looking forward to meet you all!
Nikola Radonjić
Nikola was born on October 5th 1998 and as a Libra, he's undeniably indecisive, so give him a choice and it will drive him crazy. His spirit animal is a koala, and his poker face is there to prove it. However, behind that facade, you'll find a good listener who's always ready to help. He's constantly trying to be productive, but drinking coffee in his bed till 1 P.M. makes that a bit harder to achieve.
