Since I was involved in international and local activities of JEF already at a young age, I had the possibility to follow the development of the organisation and to get a clear picture of all its strengths and perspectives but also the challenges it has to face permanently. As my experiences during my numerous activities in JEF created a deep affection to the organisation, I have a strong will to actively contribute to its further positive evolution in the FC. During my studies of political science, I gained insight in the processes of international political processes and specialized in the field of international institutions. Besides the achieved theoretical competences, the fortunate situation of Vienna, as a seat of OSZE, UN and several other international organisations allowed me to get in contact and to get involved in some of their projects, aiming to establish sustainable relations with JEF. The evaluation of OSZE reports on Kosovo and the organisation of the Model United Nations (MUN), a simulation of UN-Conferences for young people in Vienna are among them, as well as several debates and events in the Diplomatic Academy. I am highly motivated to transfer the expertise I obtained on a regional level to the European level to support JEF to use the potential that cooperating with international institutions offers to it.
