Nada Greku is one of our RGPP alumna of the 2020 graduating cohort. Nada earned her BA degree in Sociology from the University of Novi Sad, and after RGPP, she pursued her MA studies in International Relations at CEU.
During the 2023/2024 RGPP application period, Nada will be one of the RGPP Country Ambassadors eager to talk to applicants about her experiences, including the application process.
This is what she emphasizes about our RGPP family:
RGPP was such a precious experience! RGPP helped me build my professional skills. Through RGPP, I met some of the most amazing people from all over the world.
After completing RGPP, I enrolled in International Relations master’s studies at CEU, and published my first book chapter and short articles on Roma rights. In 2022, while I was an MA student, I also participated in a study visit to Cambridge University organized by Christ’s College and RSP.
Currently, I have two jobs. I work as a research consultant on Roma rights in the Western Balkans, at the European Roma Rights Centre (ERRC). Just recently, I have also started working as a consultant for the World Bank. None of this would have been possible without the generous support of our RGPP community. In RGPP you will find your support network for making your dreams come true. I would love to see many other Roma join our RGPP family.
I am happy to talk to you about my experience and practical matters you might be interested in – from obtaining visa to discussing living costs and preparing your application.

Serbian translation:
RGPP je zaista dragoceno iskustvo i volela bih da se što više Romkinja i Roma pridruži našoj RGPP porodici. RGPP mi je pomogao da izgradim svoje profesionalne veštine i da upoznam neverovatne ljude iz svih delova sveta. Nakon što sam završila RGPP upisala sam MA studije u oblasti Međunarodnih odnosa, objavila svoj prvi naučni rad i kratke članke na temu romskih prava.
Danas sam angažovana kao istraživačica pri Evropskom Centru za Romska Prava (ERRC) u oblasti prava Roma na Zapadnom Balkanu. Ništa od ovoga ne bi bilo moguće bez velikodušne podrške naše RGPP zajednice. Pridruži nam se i pronađi svoju zajednicu koja će ti dati podršku da ostvariš svoje snove. Rado bih popričala sa tobom o mom iskustvu i praktičnim stvarima koje te interesuju – od dobijanja vize do troškova života i same pripreme aplikacije.
