Hello, my name is Valeria and I am 25 years old.
I am from Rome, but I currently live in Vlorë, Albania.
I am enrolled in a 2 year master in environmental and development economics at the university of Rome 3 and at the moment I am working for an Italian NGO in Albania which deals with sustainable development.
I am interested in international development and I aspire to work as an expert in developing countries, helping them to reach the welfare level we are used to having in Europe, both economic and social. I personally feel very passionate about these issues and my goal is to make a difference in the fields of economic development, human rights and equality.
