Arno Gujon (Serbian: Арно Гујон, French: Arnaud Gouillon; born 27 November 1985) is a

French-born Serbian politician and humanitarian worker.He is the founder of Solidarité

Kosovo, a French non-governmental humanitarian organization that helps Serbs living in

enclaves in Kosovo.He has served as acting director of the Office for Cooperation with the

Diaspora and the Serbs in the Region in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Serbia since 26

November 2020.In 2015, he received Serbian citizenship and a Serbian passport, which was

delivered to him at an official ceremony in the Palace of Serbia by the Serbian Minister of

the Interior, Nebojša Stefanović.In 2018, he received the Order of St. Sava of first degree

from the Serbian Orthodox Church.He is author of the book, "All My Roads Lead to Serbia"

(in Serbian: "Svi moji putevi vode ka Srbiji").He joined the Serbian Progressive Party in

2023.== Early life and education ==

Gujon was born on November 27, 1985, in Grenoble (France).He is the youngest of three

children.His interest in Serbian-French relations were fostered by his grandfather who

spoke about the two countries' cooperation, particularly during WWI.His views were

further shaped during the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia in 1999, which he felt was

unjustified.When Anti-Serb pogroms broke out in Kosovo in March 2004, he decided to

provide assistance to affected Serb families.At the age of nineteen, he founded the

humanitarian organization "Solidarity for Kosovo" with the aim of helping the Serbian

community and other national minorities living in enclaves in Kosovo.Since 2011, he has

served as the NGO's director.He completed his elementary education in his hometown of
Jarrie and his secondary education in Vizille.In 2002, he enrolled in the Faculty of Physics

with an optional Master of Mathematics at the University of Grenoble.In 2004, he passed the

examination for admission to the Engineering Polytechnic School of the University of

Grenoble, majoring in Ecology and Risk Prevention.In 2007, he obtained a Master's Degree

with the title of engineer at the age of 22, in the field of "environmental protection".In 2012

he attended a Master of Political Science at the Faculty of Political Sciences in Belgrade,

majoring in "Political System of Serbia and Institutions".== Career ==

Between 2007 and 2010 he worked as an engineer at L'Oréal in Paris, at the Chamber of

Commerce in Bordeaux, as a professor of physics at a French school in Cairo and as a quality

coordinator in Zvornik (Republika Srpska) for Studen-Prom, a company exporting frozen

food products to France.== Humanitarian work ==

Gujon makes regular appearances in French media dealing with the topic of humanitarian

assistance in Kosovo.He produced a documentary, "Kosovo, Christianity at Risk", about the

life of the Serbian people in Kosovo, which aired on the French television channel KTO and

Radio Television of Serbia.The film was awarded as the best performance at the Zaječar

Documentary Spiritual Film Festival and at the 2018 International Orthodox Film Festival in

Kruševac.=== Solidarity for Kosovo ===

His humanitarian work began with the creation in 2004 of the charity NGO Solidarity for

Kosovo, which was founded in response to the anti-Serb unrest that afflicted Kosovo on

March 17 and 18, 2004.He came to Serbia for the first time in 2005 with his brother

Bertrand and two friends bringing the humanitarian aid gathered in France.Gouillon's

brothers’ small student organization quickly grew into one of the largest charities operating

in the Balkans.The NGO's core mission is to provide assistance exclusively to the Serbian,
Orthodox Christian community of Kosovo.In 2012, he is quoted by a French newspaper,

saying: "I started as a humanitarian in order to support Serbian Christians being deprived of

their land by the Muslims".However, according to the Balkan Investigative Reporting

Network, from 2011 to 2015, Solidarity for Kosovo has allegedly spent more money on

collecting funds rather than performing its mission of local level actions.With the support of

over 12,000 donors from all over France, and without any State or European sponsorship,

Solidarity for Kosovo has organized over 44 humanitarian aid vehicles and funded dozens of

projects in the areas of education, health and agriculture in cooperation with the Diocese of

Raška-Prizren.In cooperation with the Soup Kitchen "Majka Devet Jugovića", it funded the

construction of five farms, one dairy, one plant for the pasteurization of fruits and

vegetables, it built dozens of greenhouses and purchased hundreds of animals such as cows,

sheep and goats, as well as agricultural machines for the local Serbian enclaves.Working

with children and humanitarian projects for children is also one of the priorities of

Solidarity for Kosovo.From 2012 to date, it has renovated 34 schools, took hundreds of

children for the first time to the seaside, and helped operate two maternity wards, one

hospital and four health centers.The total worth of the assistance provided by Solidarity for

Kosovo to socially disadvantaged families living in the Serbian enclaves in Kosovo and

Metohija exceeds €5.5 million.== Social and cultural involvement ==

In addition to his humanitarian work, Arnaud Gouillon is very active in the social and

cultural areas.In 2016, he was invited to be one of the participants in the campaign "Let's

cherish the Serbian language", sponsored by the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of

Serbia, with the aim of "cultivating and protecting the Serbian language, alphabet, general

linguistic culture and literacy".
