It is our great pleasure to highlight the positive impact of the Atanas Bliznakoff Scholarship through the story of Jana Dukleska, a dedicated student at the Faculty of Economics at the “Ss. Cyril and Methodius” University in Skopje.
“Becoming an ABF scholar was not just a recognition of my past achievements—it was the beginning of a transformative journey. From the very start, the program offered more than just financial support; it gave me a sense of purpose, community, and confidence.
During my first year, I grew tremendously, both academically and personally. Surrounded by ambitious and like-minded peers, I was constantly inspired to push beyond my limits. The mentorship, workshops, and events organized by ABF helped me refine my goals and discover new perspectives on leadership and impact.
One of the most valuable lessons I learned is that being a scholar is not just about excelling in studies—it’s about using your potential to uplift others and contribute to positive change. ABF reminded me that with opportunity comes responsibility.
To the new scholars: embrace every moment. Stay curious, ask questions, get involved, and don’t be afraid to dream bigger than ever before. You are part of something special—make the most of it.
I’m deeply grateful to ABF for believing in me. This first year has laid the foundation for everything that comes next, and I couldn’t be more excited about the journey ahead. ”
