World Youth Alliance Croatia<\/strong> is organizing the eighth Summer School on Bioethics and Human Rights, an educational program aimed at young people aged 18 to 30 who want to deepen their understanding of key social and ethical topics. The school will take place from 4 to 10 August in \u0160ibenik, and will bring together 40 young people and a large number of experts from various fields.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The program brings a rich combination of interdisciplinary lectures, practical workshops and communication skills training. Topics like dignity of the human person<\/strong>, the right to life<\/strong>, appeals to conscience<\/strong> in medicine and pharmacy, but also contemporary challenges such as gender issue<\/strong>, totalitarian ideologies<\/strong> and a growing problem addictions<\/strong>, will be addressed from a philosophical, legal and medical perspective, and an attempt will be made to answer the question of how these topics are connected to the issue of recognizing the value of every human person. Special attention will be paid to the development of critical thinking, public speaking skills and advocacy skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201e"The goal of the Summer School is not only to transfer knowledge, but also to form a young person - in a mental, emotional, psychological, social and spiritual sense. We want to offer young people a space where they can connect their own beliefs with arguments and learn to express them and adequately argue," the organizing team says.
Associate Professor, Ph.D. Oliver Vasilj<\/strong>, Assistant Professor, Ph.D. Bjanka Vuksan \u0106usa<\/strong>, Herman Vukusic<\/strong>, MD, Bernardica Juretic Rozman<\/strong>, m. sc. psych., Luka Goles Babic<\/strong>, MSc. , Lovro Badzim<\/strong>, B.A. in Law are just some of the lecturers who will bring these important topics closer to young people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The lecturers come from different scientific and professional fields and will contribute their knowledge and experience to the rich and stimulating atmosphere of the school. In addition to education, participants will have the opportunity to get to know each other, create new friendships, as well as enjoy the beauties of the city of \u0160ibenik. Therefore, the \u0160ibenik coast will once again become a space for meetings, dialogue and intellectual exchange this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The experiences of the participants are extremely positive. Participant of last year's Summer School Mila Fofic<\/strong> describes her experience: \u201cThe Summer School of Bioethics and Human Rights brought me an indescribable number of memories. It contributed with knowledge, contemporary and truthful information that the lecturers carried with them. That's when I realized that it's not enough to believe in the truth, we need to know why we believe. In addition, you will make wonderful friends, have a lot of fun, participate in sports activities and much more.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Participant Josipa Bubalovic<\/strong> states: \u201cThe Summer School of Bioethics and Human Rights was an unplanned, but very fulfilling summer vacation for me. I left \u0160ibenik happy because of all the wonderful, inspiring young people I met and who are my friends today. I also upgraded my knowledge, which helped me to be even more courageous in witnessing my own values in my environment.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
