Motivation
While living abroad, I have always had my small missions, how to keep in touch with Lithuania, how to present Lithuania to the world. It is important for me that people know this country, our culture. Therefore my academic activities, research examine the processes developing the field of Lithuanian culture and cultural policy.
The time has come when I realised that an article or analysis is not enough for changes to occur in Lithuania. “Create Lithuania” has fascinated me from the very beginning of their activities. I believe that I now have a great opportunity to apply my knowledge and experience in a meaningful way and to contribute to changes that can trigger multifaceted processes.
