The War Childhood Museum has announced the creation of its Global Advisory Board (GAB), bringing together distinguished professionals from diverse fields to provide strategic guidance and support to the Museum’s mission worldwide.
The Global Advisory Board is designed to strengthen the Museum’s international profile and help shape its long-term vision through expertise, partnerships, and key initiatives. While not involved in governance, GAB members will contribute knowledge and experience that enrich the Museum’s global impact.
The inaugural members of the Board include:
- Marc D’Silva (Chair), worked for international relief and development for over 30 years;
- Vesna Bajšanski-Agić, Vice President of Strategic Alliances and Global Development at TechSoup;
- Mary Fitzgerald, researcher and policy analyst specializing in the Mediterranean region;
- Eric Nelson, former U.S. Ambassador to Bosnia and Herzegovina;
- Deyan Sudjic, writer, curator, and Director Emeritus of the Design Museum in London.
The first meeting of the Global Advisory Board will take place in Sarajevo in September 2025. Additional members will be selected in the coming period.
