Gabriela Bartic is an educational expert and executive director at BRIO, known for her insightful analysis of Romania's educational policies. She emphasizes the importance of merit-based scholarships and the financial burdens placed on parents of exceptional students. Bartic argues that while students compete at high levels out of passion, the elimination of excellence scholarships sends a troubling message about the value placed on academic achievement in Romania. She advocates for alternative support measures, such as tax deductions for parents, to acknowledge the financial investments made in fostering talented youth.
