Dublin City University- BA International RelationsI am passionate about
<p>
I would have to say that my passions lie in the world around me, whether that is human rights advocacy, following political situations around the world as they unfold, learning new languages, experiencing new cultures or simply observing the world through the lens of my camera.</p>
<p>
Today's world is such a fast paced and ever changing environment and I believe that there is no greater feeling than engaging in shaping our world and hopefully, in some small way, making a difference.</p>
Actions
<p>
Throughout the past few years I've engaged in several different projects and initiatives which seek to make positive change such as the Suas Literacy programme, aiming to help children from disadvantaged areas improve their literacy and numeracy skills. I was also a participant in the Clinton Summer School which seeks to empower young social entrepreneurs and focused on the impact that young innovators can and have had on the peace process in Northern Ireland.</p>
