Motivation

The progress of a country is unthinkable without the maturity of society, tolerance and the ability to accept each other. Having spent more than four years working for an NGO in the UK, I have always linked my civic activism to changes in society on the issues of equality, inclusion of people with disabilities and discrimination.

The Create for Lithuania project is a unique opportunity to take new steps towards addressing social inclusion and related issues. I have no doubt that this year will be full of challenges, enthusiasm and meaningful projects, and I am very honoured to be part of this amazing process.

I believe that the best time to act is always now.
