Esther Garcia Fransioli, UN WOMEN Youth and Gender Officer
After living and working for almost two years in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Esther Garcia Fransioli says that one of the most valuable lessons she has learned is how to better handle sensitive situations that often emerge in this post-conflict country. Numerous development issues and extremely complex political circumstances make her work as the UN Women Youth and Gender Officer all the more challenging, but also better equipped for any future endeavor she might choose.
Elizabeth Siebenmann, UNV BiH Programme Officer
Growing up in Toronto, one of the most multicultural cities in the world, Elizabeth Siebenmann is used to being exposed to a diversity of cultures and traditions. Thus, when she arrived in Sarajevo in October 2009 to take over a position of the UNV Programme Officer in BiH, she felt almost at home.
