“I am very thankful for the program that you provided. I enjoyed it and it encouraged me and helped me in my studies very much. Please send my gratitude to those people who sponsored, organized and participated in working this program through. Let God bless you for that” (Summer 2024 ODC participant).
“I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to participate in such a wonderful educational program. And I understand that the announced price of the fees for participants is much lower than the actual price of the program. This program exists thanks to people and churches who believe that such support for education and science is of great value. For me, the opportunity to work on my topic on trauma healing (mechanisms) from a theological perspective is a contribution to the development of my competence, and an opportunity to deepen my knowledge to help others effectively.” (Summer 2024 ODC participant).
“The most significant benefit of engaging with mentors and colleagues is the enhanced understanding of research methodologies, available resources, and their locations. Interacting with experienced mentors provides invaluable insights into effective research strategies and methodologies that may not be readily apparent through independent study. These mentors can offer tailored advice, share their own experiences, and provide guidance on navigating complex research challenges” (Summer 2024 ODC participant).
“I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to travel to and stay in Osijek for studying. Having dedicated time to think about my topic, read, listen to others for inspiration, and seek advice from mentors and colleagues was invaluable. This was a very special time for me to dive into my topic with such diverse support” (Summer 2024 ODC participant).
