  • Description

    I am a freelance researcher and activist in the field of human rights and democracy. A minimalist, and an IELTS instructor who is seeking secular spiritual life through an adventurous path.

    Currently, I am engaging in glocal volunteer program of a human rights campaign called UNPeople which can be read as both United People and the UN-People (as of the People of the United Nations). It is a campaign to promote human rights and democracy in glocal level through public awareness, capacity building and poverty alleviation projects. Here is its website: www.unpeople.net

    As a Glocal Volunteer, I am travelling wherever I can get a visa to advocate for article 13(2) of UDHR (Universal Declaration of Human Rights) in a practical way. The article reads: “Everyone has the right to leave any country, including his own, and to return to his country.”

    This way, I would be able to leave my comfort zone, expand my world view, having new experiences, enriching my point of view, modifying my habits, getting to know other cultures or meeting up with new people, while offering some extra hands for their immediate needs and hopefully start a WiGo English Linking and Learning program in their neighborhood.
