OUR TEAM

Thanks to my mother, I got to know the civil sector as a child: I volunteered at the Large Families Association of Debrecen, where I was head of the Youth section. I continued my university studies at ELTE and Pázmány Péter Catholic University in international relations, specialising in European Studies and Cultural Diplomacy. During my university years I was a member of a student organisation whose aim was to inform young people in particular authentically about the European Union and help dispel misconceptions about it. As part of this I held interactive EU lessons in secondary schools. I took part in numerous domestic and international projects in which I got to know the innovative and highly effective methods of non-formal education. That was when it occurred to me that I would like to do this professionally. As an international project manager I was able to hold various workshops and trainings for young people. The participants' enthusiasm and feedback confirmed that the non-formal development of young people is my path. To fulfil myself as a youth trainer too, I completed the ten-month SALTO Training of Trainers course, then applied for the mental health specialist further training at the University of Debrecen. My traineeship at the European Parliament in Brussels, my Erasmus study scholarship semester in Finland, and various EU youth programmes – including international youth exchanges and trainings – shaped me a great deal. Thanks to these experiences I developed an open and empathetic outlook, I feel comfortable in a multicultural environment, and I speak both English and Spanish at an advanced level.
