Ivanović also holds a Postgraduate Diploma in Diplomatic Practice from the United Nations Institute for Training and Research.[6]

Academic career

edit

From 2010 to 2014 Ivanović worked as a research & teaching fellow at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology. From 2015 to 2016 he was a research associate at the Van Leer Jerusalem Institute[7] and a visiting researcher at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, and from 2016 to 2017 he worked as a researcher at the Department of Greek Studies of the University of Leuven. He specialized at the Aarhus University (2010) and twice (2012/2013 and 2017/2018) at the Norwegian Institute at Athens as an Onassis International Scholar.[8]

In the academic year 2018/2019 he taught aesthetics at the Music Academy of the University of Montenegro,[9] and in 2019 he became assistant professor of philosophy and culture at the University of Donja Gorica in Podgorica.[4] In April 2022, he was appointed assistant research professor at the Institute of Advanced Studies of the University of Montenegro.[10]

He is the founder and director of the Center for Hellenic Studies in Podgorica,[11] one of the founders of the International Conference of Hellenic Studies,[12] and editor-in-chief of the international scholarly journal Akropolis: Journal of Hellenic Studies.[13] He is a member of the Committee for Philosophy and Sociology of the Montenegrin Academy of Sciences and Arts (CANU),[14] the Working Group for negotiations on Montenegro's accession to the European Union for Chapter 25 "Science and Research",[15] and the College of Research Associates of the European Science Foundation. He is an external expert at the Agency for Control and Quality Assurance of Higher Education of Montenegro.[16] From April 2022 to August 2023 Ivanović served as a member of the Governing board of the University of Montenegro.[17] In 2022, he was a member of the jury for the Thirteenth of July Award, the highest state recognition of Montenegro.[18]

Ivanović is a member of numerous academic and professional associations, including the International Society for the Study of Medieval Philosophy,[19] the International Association of Patristic Studies,[20] the International Society for Neoplatonic Studies, the North American Patristic Association,[21] the American Philosophical Association,[22] and others.

Ivanović is also a fellow of the Young Academy of Europe[23] and a fellow of the Royal Historical Society,[24] as well as member of the CANU Center for Young Scientists and Artists.[25]

Political career

edit

The government of Zdravko Krivokapić appointed Ivanović as Ambassador of Montenegro to the Holy See, for which he received the agrément from the Vatican in September 2021. The then President of Montenegro Milo Đukanović refused to sign letters of credence for Ivanović, justifying this position with the opinion that a career diplomat should be sent to the Vatican.[26]

In August 2022, Ivanović joined the newly founded centrist Europe Now (PES), led by former ministers Milojko Spajić and Jakov Milatović[27] and became its presidency member.[28] PES participated at the 2022 local elections and Ivanović was elected to the City Assembly of Podgorica.[29] He was sworn in on 12 April 2023,[30] but resigned from this post in May 2023, citing incompatibility with duties at the Governing board of the University of Montenegro.[31]

Following Milatović's victory in the 2023 presidential election, Ivanović served as acting foreign policy advisor to the President.[32][33]
