Green Fest Team

Ivana Jovčić
Editor of the educational and exhibition program
Ivana Jovčić is the director of the Environmental Improvement Centre. Thanks to her engagement, educational and exhibition programs are, year after year, of higher quality and more numerous, making Green Fest the largest educational event in the field of environment.
“The process of education never ends, especially in today’s time of accelerated scientific development, but also of the increasingly obvious consequences of human impact on the environment. Without adequate knowledge, we will not be able to correct the mistakes of the past and make the future sustainable, both for people and for the rest of the living world, which is an indispensable part of our environment. We believe that the most important thing is to educate the younger generations so that in the future they would be more prepared for the consequences of the legacy of civilization, but also to participate in creating new solutions that will change the paradigm and change the path we are on now.”

Vladan Šćekić
Film programmer
Vladan Šćekić is the program director of the Environmental Improvement Centre. From the very beginning of the festival, he is dedicated to bringing the best current film releases, as well as preparing the competition program in cooperation with the Jury.
“Films dedicated to the environment and ecology, from year to year, are becoming more numerous and of better quality, and it is becoming an increasing challenge to make a choice for the official selection of the festival. However, thanks to this growth, the films provide us with a better insight into the various topics and challenges that communities face around the world, they offer solutions for the future, but also bring a fresh wave of creativity in expression, deeply connecting art and the environment as, even though separate, existential areas for the survival and further development of human civilization.”
