Current occupation

I am at the moment volunteering as a facilitator with various organisations (Solidarités Jeunesses, 100% Handinamique) to gain more practice and create my own network

Work experience

I recently facilitated a workshop about ESC addressed to students with various disabilities within the organisation 100% Handinamique. The workshop included:
- a quiz about ESC to get to know the programme in a more interactive way
- my own testimony
- a creative task where participants had to draw what could be their dreamy project.

Through my EuroPeers journey, I worked as a Junior Trainer for one year within the EuroPeers Advisory Group (EAG) alongside my colleague Senior trainer. The EAG is a consultancy group willing to improve coordination and communication in the EuroPeers network. Our target group was young people aged 18-30 from different European countries.

I co-facilitated online meetings monthly using fun energizers, picture games, break out rooms activities to make meetings more interactive while checking on members’progress.

Besides, I co-facilitated 3 face to face meetings (The Handover Meeting, September AG Meeting and Closing Meeting) using a variety of non formal activities (musical Walk and Talk, escape Game, Scrapbooking).

I was also Junior Trainer during an International Europeers Training Course in Germany (Bonn) in November 2023 to introduce new members to the EuroPeers network.

It was overall challenging and strong working experiences that made me wanting to continue through the training adventure!

At the moment, I am still promoting EU youth mobility programmes especially for the young people with Fewer Opportunities since they should also being given this chance to learn and go abroad. (young people with disabilities, LGBT+ community, unemployed young people etc.)

I am very inspired by inclusive practices and have started to facilitate inclusive/intuitive dancing which are dancing/body movement workshops accessible to everybody whatever is your ability or situation. I am hoping to facilitate more of them. I have also researched about inclusive energizers and would like to be able to create more inclusive activities for all.

I also would like to be involved in on-arrival, mid-term training and seminar return of ESC volunteers since I truly enjoys working with young people from various countries and backgrounds. Since I’ve been a volunteer myself, I have a very good understanding of the various paths and emotions that go through experiencing life abroad.

I have started a course on art-therapy (playful creativity) that mixes creativity with playfulness and I am willing to incorporate these new methods in my future practice as an international trainer alongside more sustainable practices.
