I am a third-year undergraduate student studying journalism. I\u2019m a firm believer that there is always a story to tell, which is why it\u2019s been a pleasure telling the stories of LERRN\u2019s amazing partners and projects. In my free time I enjoy taking photos, reading and discovering new restaurants.<\/p>\n
I was immediately drawn to join the LERRN team as I am very interested in refugee and migration issues. LERRN has given me the opportunity to express my ideas and receive helpful feedback from a group of committed and hardworking people. During my time with LERRN, I have developed a communications strategy, assisted in enhancing the LERRN website and social media presence and promoted our partners, events and other LERRN activities.<\/p>\n
One particular event that was of great importance to me was the film screening of AISLE, a film made by Hicham Kayed, a Palestinian filmmaker. The beautiful film is about two brothers who are Palestinian refugees living in Germany, who share their feelings on leaving their home and family behind. I was extremely happy to see so many community members gather to watch a film on such an important topic.<\/p>\n
As a journalism student, this placement has tremendously helped me improve my writing and digital skills, think creatively and overall be a better communicator.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","meta":{"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":"","_mi_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"people-type":[54],"yoast_head":"\n
