During the period March 23–29, 2025, I stayed at Masaryk University in Brno (Czech Republic) as part of the Erasmus+ staff mobility program. I delivered a two-day course on the topic of sustainable economy and ESG standards, with a particular focus on developing countries such as Bosnia and Herzegovina. The lectures were held in English for international program students, and I also had the opportunity to present our country, city, and university, which sparked great interest, especially among students from outside Europe.
Since this was my first experience with international mobility, there was a certain sense of uncertainty at the beginning. However, colleagues in Brno and the excellently organized International Relations Office ensured that everything went smoothly. I received timely information about the courses, schedules, and colleagues with whom I quickly arranged topics and teaching materials. Working with students from Europe, Asia, and South America was truly valuable, as the diversity of perspectives enriched the discussions and gave me a new outlook on my work.
In addition to the academic part, I used my free time to explore Brno and also visited Prague. I would particularly recommend Brno as a charming city and an ideal choice for a first Erasmus+ experience. I encourage both students and colleagues to take advantage of this opportunity and gain valuable contacts and memories.
