Project manager/ trainer
For over 10 years, I have been a consultant in European project engineering and a trainer specializing in Erasmus+ (KA1 and KA2) and OFAJ programs. My expertise lies at the crossroads of non-formal education, technological innovation, and social inclusion. Through my work, I strive to design and implement educational projects that foster civic engagement, cultural diversity, and personal development.
I have coordinated numerous projects, including youth exchanges and mobility programs for youth workers, aimed at promoting social inclusion, leadership, and diversity. These initiatives have created collaborative environments where both young people and professionals develop essential skills such as project management, intercultural communication, and active participation. At Universal View, my responsibilities also include overseeing projects focused on civic engagement, sustainability, and the employability of marginalized youth.
I design and facilitate workshops in English, French, and Spanish, covering diverse topics such as diversity, equity, human rights, post-colonialism, and emerging technologies (artificial intelligence, augmented and virtual reality). My participatory methods, including role-playing, simulations, and debates, foster practical and collaborative learning experiences. These workshops are tailored to participants' needs, aiming to strengthen their skills, creativity, and critical thinking.
As the founder of Niamato Consulting, I support associations, schools, and international organizations in developing European projects, securing funding, and drafting strategic proposals. I also translate calls for proposals in English, French, and Spanish to ensure clarity and facilitate submission processes. My personalized approach involves close collaboration with clients to guarantee impactful and sustainable results.
Support for Marginalized and Diverse Groups
I frequently work with young migrants, refugees, and cultural and religious minorities, creating inclusive spaces that value diversity and encourage active participation. My target audiences also include professionals such as teachers and social workers, for whom I deliver training focused on diversity management and social inclusion. My interventions help overcome social and economic barriers while promoting mutual understanding and respect among cultures.
Recent projects and future goals :
- Development of innovative tainings: Integrating digital tools such as artificial intelligence, augmented reality, and virtual reality into educational programs to enhance learning and engagement.
- Promotion of intercultural inclusion: Designing international exchange programs to foster diversity and intercultural dialogue.
- Design of sustainable projects: Leading Erasmus+ initiatives focused on non-formal education, sustainability, and social innovation.
- Strategic collaboration: Building transnational partnerships to maximize the impact of European projects and support participants’ skill development.
With a focus on innovation and social impact, I aim to contribute to a more inclusive and sustainable future by leveraging the tools of non-formal education and international collaboration.
I hold a Bachelor's degree in Literature from Mary Queen University in London and a Master's degree in Political Science from Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne University. These academic qualifications have strengthened my critical analysis skills and deepened my understanding of social, cultural, and political dynamics—essential competencies in my work as a trainer and consultant.
Additionally, I earned a diploma in translation (English-French / French-English), which has been instrumental in developing my linguistic and intercultural expertise. This skillset allows me to work effectively in multilingual contexts and facilitate intercultural exchanges, particularly within European projects like Erasmus+ and OFAJ.
My educational background extends beyond formal education. I have participated in and facilitated numerous non-formal education projects, including workshops and training sessions within Erasmus+ (KA1, KA2) and OFAJ programs. These experiences have enabled me to master participatory and innovative methodologies while working with diverse audiences, including youth, professionals, and marginalized groups.
Lastly, my interest in innovation has led me to pursue training in emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, augmented reality, and virtual reality. I incorporate these tools into my training sessions to provide modern and engaging learning experiences.
These combined experiences—formal and non-formal—have shaped my approach as a trainer, enabling me to merge theory and practice to deliver educational programs that are relevant, inclusive, and impactful.
