Mission and Vision

In the midst of a shifting global political landscape, marked by modern challenges and hurdles, a demand for an open intellectual space is on the rise. At Balkan Talks, we are dedicated to cultivating a dynamic and inclusive online community that honors the abundant cultural diversity within the Balkan region. Our primary goal is to establish a digital environment where individuals from diverse backgrounds can converge, partake in academic work, share personal narratives, and cultivate connections that transcend geographical boundaries.

In the wake of the conflict in Ukraine and the unfolding crisis in Europe, coinciding with a transformative period in global politics, Balkan Talks advocates for the strengthening of communication within the Balkan region and beyond. Through the deliberate cultivation of academic work, open dialogue and mutual understanding, we envision a digital space that not only empowers individuals to construct bridges but also facilitates lasting connections, transcending the boundaries of the Balkans and reaching far beyond.
