Marcella Zandonai
Marcella Zandonai, originally from Trento,
Italy, graduated in 2017 from Euroculture (MA). Her mobility track took her
around the world: Göttingen, Bilbao (two study semesters) and Sydney (for her
internship at the Greek Consulate General). Her BA, instead was undergone in
Italy (Forli), Spain (Madrid) and Greece (Corfu) and was focused on
International Relations and Diplomacy. Her study interest has always been on
international relations, minorities and languages. As a result, Marcella speaks
six languages and is always enthusiastic to meet people from all around the
world.
After 2017 graduation ceremony in Göttingen Marcella found a job as an HR
assistant at ECHA (European Chemical Agency) in Helsinki. The end of this
traineeship took her back to Greece, where she found another job – again as an
HR Assistant - at ENISA (European Cyber Security Agency). The year after, she
choose to undergo a European Voluntary Service (EVS) in Catalonia where she
focused on environmental issues and community development. In 2019, Marcella
decided to follow her dream to go to New Zealand and she spent there six
intense months working and travelling. At the end of 2019, she decided to go
back to her beloved hometown, Trento, and she found a job, as community
developer and assistant social worker, in a local NGO dealing with refugees.
This was a wonderful and intense experience, which helped her to understand her
main life and career focus even more.
Now she is happily back to Göttingen and full of energy to support students in their Euroculture adventure.
