Work Background

Hands Across Romania AssociationProgram Manager (President)

Dec. 2005Bucharest, RomaniaI set up the organisation following a European Voluntary Service and ever since I manage its activity with public and private funds to ensure a better life for people. Most of the projects are in the education area, tackling different topics (energy, vocational education, nutrition) that make an impact on a child's life. Mother and child health is one of the fundamental human rights that I developed projects for. Public affairs activities are a must and I maintain a network of stakeholders (governmental institutions, private sectors representatives, other NGOs, media, international and diplomatic institutions) building the organisation’s strong voice in policy making. To enhance the access to quality education, I set up the VoHub - coalition for promoting dual VET, and enrolled the organisations in different federations.
