Margaret Maher
Copenhagen, Denmark
My initial expectation was
that the program would give
me an opportunity to meet new
people from different
backgrounds and cultures and
would also help me travel in
many countries which I never
visited before in addition to
developing my skills.
two kinds of tasks, one is
simple which is helping the
project coordinators with their
projects, for instance using
Microsoft Office & Canva to
organize/create materials and
contents. The other is
facilitating workshops and
organizing events and attending
partners meetings to develop
and implement projects´
applications.
Coming to Denmark has given me an opportunity to
widen my network worldwide as I was able to establish
friendships with people from other countries not just
where my volunteering is, it has also improved my
digital marketing skills, my English and soft skills.
I believe during this opportunity I will be able to
coordinate projects
It highly met my expectations, I travelled to 2
countries so far and I´m also improving my English,
inter-personal skills and in the process of
developing project coordination skills.
I would highly recommend it, it
´s a great chance to get
exposed to different cultures
and rethink about someone´s
culture and prejudices that has
been inserted to a person, also
improving many soft and
professional skills and meeting
people you would have never met
if it wasn´t because of this
opportunity.
