At the expense of missing some weeks during the summer, as well as the last couple of weeks on tour, I finally completed my university degree at Belarus State University, majoring in International Law. My diploma work was on "International Protection of Children's Rights."

Being a UNICEF Good Will Ambassador to Belarus and taking part in the various national and international children's programs over the years in the framework of the ATP, I've witnessed the necessity in continuing to act in providing children around the world with extra care and attention to ensure a better and safer future of humanity.

I want to thank my family for supporting me during the long five years of my studies and also wonderful crew of BSU professors, from whom I had the pleasure of gathering required knowledge which I am sure will be very useful for me in the future.
