Marijan Tustonjaclose

I completed my graduate studies in social work at the University of Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina. Right now, I am employed in social work studies as a Teaching assistant. I am also currently attending the second year of my postgraduate doctoral study in communication science, the field of interpersonal communication.
In addition, I am the Head of the Office for Students with Disabilities at the University of Mostar, through which my team and I strive to provide students with various forms of disabilities with equal access and education for all. Through my activities, I want to enable vulnerable groups in our society to ensure visibility, security, advocacy and independence.

Throughout the student days I was engaged in various areas of student life. I led an association of social work students whose biggest challenge was the promotion of volunteerism. I coordinated student courses at my university and coordinated the Office of International Cooperation. In my last year of study, I was the president of the Student Union, the highest representative body of students at the University of Mostar, which was established in 2000. He has held this position within the WBAA Teams from January to September 2022.
