From May to August 2022, I was the Intern for Public Relations and Campaigning at Democracy International. My main tasks were covered by running the social media representations from Democracy International and the European Public Sphere. My responsibilities included preparing, creating, and posting news and any further content for the organization, connecting and promoting partners and their work and news and the promotion of the newsletter from DI. Furthermore, I assisted the preparation work for the 2022 Global Forum on Modern Direct Democracy in Lucerne.

DI provided a great working atmosphere from the very beginning, flexible and understanding work schedule and a welcoming and heartily team which always has been there to help out, clarify and guide if needed, always entitled to facilitate your abilities and expand your potential.

I am grateful for this opportunity and the insights DI offered me working for an NGO. The team´s passionate and devoted work for more citizen participation and direct democracy was an inspiring experience I will always cherish.

All the best for the future of Democracy International!
