I am journalist also deep in areas of advertising, politics and media theory. The reason I write for Global Voices can be seen in a great need for more Serbian voices in international media to improve understanding between my country and the world. Meeting professor Yuan Ying Chan at HKU gave me inspiration to be optimistic about future of media as internet gives a lot of possibilities to develop interactive online networks where citizen journalists can take part with real time news and in-depth analyses offered by GV online. A lot of inspiration came from Rebecca MacKinnon as well. So I hope the future is bright so freedom of speech activists will make the difference! You may visit my homepage, personal blog, flickr ,

Jelena's ex-husband, a drug addict, comes to her home and threatens her child. Jelena divorced him, two years ago. The court ordered that he can see the child, because this can help his therapy to stop drug addiction, and yet he never paid any child support and has become a threat to Jelena and her child. Jelena talked to the class of Serbian Web Journalism School. Her talk was part of a Facebook activism lecture. Students made a cause page on Facebook to promote this and similar cases. More than 250 individuals have joined it so far. 2 comments  · read »
