DA NI ODLAZAK NI POVRATAK NE BUDU TABU KONFERENCIJA TALENTI NA OKUPU . TALENT MEETUP 2.0 CONFERENCE LEAVING OR RETURNING SHOULDN’T BE TABOO
N akon što je devet godina proveo u ino- stranstvu, Ivan Brkljač se vratio u Srbiju, gde je prvo otpočeo karijeru kao specija- lista za onlajn marketing, a zatim je bio jedan od osnivača inicijative Mokrin House . Odne- davno se bavi temom cirkularnih migracija i odno- sima naših talenata u zemlji i dijaspori. U Beogra- du će krajem decembra biti održana konferencija Talenti na okupu 2.0 , koju je inicirala Ana Brnabić, predsednica Vlade RS, i koja će okupiti naše ljude koji uspešno rade i studiraju u inostranstvu. Pita- mo Ivana koja je ideja i glavna poruka konferencije , koju i ove godine organizuje tim nacionalne plat- forme Srbija stvara . – Ideja je da se na jednom mestu okupe talen- ti našeg društva. Na prethodnom okupljanju usta- novljeno je da postoji potreba za jačanjem odnosa između matice i dijaspore i na tome se aktivno radi- lo ove godine. Cilj ove konferencije je da se nastavi započetim putem približavanja dijaspore i srpskog društva sa ultimativnim ciljem da jednog dana po- stoji neometani cirkularni tok ljudi, znanja i kapi- tala između Srbije i njene dijaspore.
A fter spending nine years living abroad, Ivan Brkljač returned to Serbia, where he’d rst began his career as a special- ist in online marketing and then been among the co-founders of the Mokrin House initi- ative. He recently began dealing with the topic of circular migration and relations between our tal- ented people both in the country and among the diaspora.LateDecemberwillseeBelgradehostthe conference Talent MeetUp 2.0, which was initiat- ed by Serbian PM Ana Brnabić and will bring to- gether Serbian people who work and study abroad successfully. We asked Ivan about the main idea and message of the conference, which is this year again being organised by the Serbia Creates na- tional platform... “The idea is to bring together in one place tal-

ented people from our society. It was determined at the previous gathering that a need exists to strengthen the relationship between the home- land and the diaspora, and this has been worked on actively during this year. The aim of this confer- ence is to continue the route embarked upon to bring the diaspora and Serbian society closer to- gether, with the ultimate goal of one day having an unhindered circular ow of people, knowhow and capital between Serbia and its diaspora.” In which way can our country form an environment in which the young people who leave Serbia also return to the country? - It is important for us to get to the point where neither leaving nor re- turning are taboo, but rather an integral part of the processes that unfold in a vibrant global economy. What we certainly need to enable is for those transi- tions to be as simple as possible, which is why we’ve been working over the last year to ease the validating of foreign diplomas, while the National Bank of Serbia has published a nancial manual for returnees and work is being done on the adaptation of customs regulations when it comes to bringing assets acquired abroad into the country.These are just some of the steps that are being, and will be, taken to facilitate integration into domestic society. Who are the conference’s participants and to whom have invitations been extended? -Ontheonehand,theyaremembersofvariousdiasporaorganisations, prominent individuals in the elds of science, business and the arts, but al- so students from the world’s best universities. On the other hand, there are also talented people from our country, returnees who are the initiators of their initiatives, as well as the best students of local universities. Invitations have been extended to state institutions and the non-governmental sec- tor, in order for us all to discuss together – under the leadership of Serbian Prime Minister and conference initiator Ana Brnabić – both the problems and potential solutions when it comes to strengthening relations between the diaspora and our society.
Na koji način naša zemlja mo- že da formira ambijent u ko- jem će se mladi koji odu iz Sr- bije u nju i vratiti?
– Bitno je da dođemo do tačke u kojoj ni od- lazak ni povratak nisu tabu, već sastavni deo pro- cesa koji se dešavaju u vibrantnoj globalnoj eko- nomiji. Ono što svakako moramo da omogućimo jeste da te tranzicije budu što jednostavnije, te se u poslednjih godinu dana radilo na tome da se strane diplome lakše nostrifikuju, NBS je objavi- la finansijski priručnik za povratnike, a radi se i na adaptaciji carinskih propisa kada je reč o uno- šenju imovine stečene u inostranstvu. To su sa- mo neki koraci koji jesu i biće učinjeni kako bi integracija u domaće društvo bila jednostavnija. Ko su učesnici konferencije i kome je sve upu- ćen poziv? – Sa jedne strane članovi raznih organizacija iz dijaspore, ista- knuti pojedinci u poljima nauke, biznisa i umetnosti, kao i studen- ti sa najboljih svetskih univerziteta. Sa druge strane, tu su talenti iz naše zemlje, povratnici koji su pokretači svojih inicijativa, kao i naj- bolji studenti sa domaćih univerziteta. Pozivi su upućeni državnim institucijama i nevladinom sektoru kako bismo svi zajedno, predvo- đeni Anom Brnabić, predsednicom Vlade i inicijatorkom ove kon- ferencije, diskutovali o problemima i potencijalnim rešenjima u ve- zi sa jačanjem odnosa između dijaspore i našeg društva.
