Integration consulent & trainer at Agentschap Integratie en Inburgering

I am a socio-cultural worker in heart and soul. I love working with groups and I'm fascinated by group dynamics. I am a trainer and facilitator. I want to build bridges and bring people and sectors together, construct intersections and stimulate the exchange of knowledge and experience. I can be an intermediary between scientists and activists, among specialists and the local community. I want to design participatory methods that involve local people as active participants in all stages of the project: from deciding priorities to assessing the results. I want to inform people and raise awareness. In short, the activities of a social worker in an international context.
