Spending time in new places, with people from different backgrounds and ideas is the best way to learn, I find.
And I am very lucky to currently study in the Double Degree in Policies and Governance in Europe in my first year in such a rich environment. I am from Germany, where I completed my undergraduate degree in International Relations and Social Studies at the University of Erfurt and I am especially interested in topics of participation and gender equality. Through several internships, in particular at the German Embassy here in Rome, I have gained practical experience next to my studies.
