“I am a Master's student of International Development at the University of Vienna, building on an undergraduate degree in International Relations. My academic interests lie in social justice issues and global affairs, which I approach from critical, feminist and postcolonial perspectives. Aside from my studies, I am actively involved in socio-political projects, such as working as a project manager for the Erasmus+ funded Youth Ambassadors Starters Programme (YASP) 2024/25 with Jugendbotschafter e.V.“

 

"To me, it means learning from and with one another! In our times of polycrisis, rights-based and participatory approaches are needed not only to help us understand the complexities of our world, but also to inspire actions of collective solidarity. I believe that civic education holds the power to be both restorative and transformative.”
