Learning through Experience with Nadja Halilbegovich

Learning through Experience with Nadja Halilbegovich, Her Compelling Journey through the Bosnian Genocide & Its Tragic Parallels to Ukraine

The Institute of Holocaust and Genocide Studies at Raritan Valley Community College are pleased to present their Online Learning Through Experience Program with Nadja Halilbegovich. Nadja was twelve years old when war broke out in Bosnia, her native country. Throughout the next three and a half years, she and all the citizens of the capital Sarajevo suffered from continuous shelling and the deprivation of basic needs. During the war, Nadja began sharing her poetry and diary entries on National Radio. At fourteen, Nadja’s diary was published in Bosnia. She became known as the “Bosnian Anne Frank” and has spoken widely about her experiences. Please join them to hear Nadja talk about her journey and the parallels to Ukraine today.
