ICC PSM was formally established less than three months ago — on May 15, 2026, in Lublin (Poland)in the presence of AnnemarieMostert, and immediately began its operations.
1.Through the initiative of Mateo Karczmarczuk(President of this ICC for Poland) and Luka Tomazic (President of this ICC for Slovenia), working relationships were established between Alma Mater Europea University in Maribor, Slovenia, and WSPA University (University of Business and Administration) in Lublin. (The attached photo shows Prof. Maia Mazur, Rector, and Małgorzata Michalska, Vice-Rector of WSPA, alongside Luka Tomazic, Vice – Rector of Alma Mater Europea, and Mateo.) A fruitful, long-term collaboration is in prospect.
2.Luka Tomazic and Mateo Karczmarczukattended the prestigious Three Seas Congress, held in Lublin at the end of May. The event brought together hundreds of local government representatives from 14 countries situated between the Baltic, Black, and Adriatic Seas. We established numerous
valuable contacts for cross-border cooperation across various fields. (Pictured: Mateo and Luka)

Toni Dovenski-President of the ICC in subject for Macedonia), Luka Tomazic, and Matei are in constant communication regarding the project. Toni identified an urgent need in Macedonia to assist people with disabilities, seniors, and those with orthopedic conditions by improving their mobility.
Consequently, the Rotary Club Lublin-Centrum will acquire approximately 20 new wheelchairs and deliver them to the Rotary Club Kumanovoin Macedonia (Toni Dovenski’s club), where local Rotarians will distribute them to those in need at their discretion.
