Mansoor Adayfi is a writer, human rights advocate, and former prisoner who spent around 15 years at the US military camp in Guantánamo without charges or trial. He was resettled to Serbia in 2016 as part of an agreement between the US government and Serbia. Since his release, he has taken a few steps toward his goals. In 2021, he completed his bachelor's degree in management, and he is currently working towards a master's in Project Management. Based on his graduation thesis, "Rehabilitation and Integration of Former Guantanamo Prisoners into Social Life and the Labor Market," along with American lawyers and US-based NGOs, he founded GSF (Guantanamo Survivors Fund).
