Name: Julia Schneider
Age: 24
Hometown: Munich, Germany
Area of Study: Event management
Why I chose this internship:
After finishing my apprenticeship as an Event Manager in Munich, I wanted to continue working in the event planning area, but also try to find a company where I can work for something meaningful.
Here at World Youth Alliance I am actively involved in several projects, such as
We are a mixed group of people working at WYA and there are interns from all around the world, which is a lot of fun and also a great opportunity for cultural exchange.
I really could widen my horizon as we are learning more about human dignity in our trainings (Track A and Track B) and how to bring thoughts into action to actively impact society & politics.
WYA´s mission to promote the dignity of the human person is the basis for a functioning society and the first step to support people especially from developing countries. But an extended understanding of the dignity of the human person also will be important for every other relationships in life, both personally or professionally.
Above all it´s nice to work in a team of young & motivated people who all share the same values.
