🇧🇦 2026 BAPA STUDENT PRESENTATIONS: LAYLA HURLEY

Layla Hurley will be presenting her research on the growing disparity between women’s educational attainment and leadership representation in Bosnia & Herzegovina. Her project explores the social, structural, and cultural barriers that continue beyond the classroom and asks why highly educated women remain underrepresented in leadership positions and what can be done to close that gap.

We’re proud to support student research that sparks important conversations about the future of Bosnia & Herzegovina. 🇧🇦

We’re excited to highlight Farah Sertović, one of this year’s student presenters! 🇧🇦

Her presentation explores sevdalinka as a living form of cultural memory for Bosnians in Bosnia and across the diaspora. Through historical research, community perspectives, and STRIGOL as a case study, Farah examines how traditional lyrics, modern musical interpretations, and digital media can help preserve sevdah and connect it with younger generations.

We look forward to hearing her research and perspective at the 2026 BAPA Forum! 💙
