My name is Francesco and I am from Rome. I am 24 years old. I studied Mathematics at the University of Rome Tre. I have always been interested in Development Economics. I hope that my Mathematical background will be useful in understanding the main concepts of cooperation. I have been a volunteer in Romania since 2004 working close with a family-house project and in Rome since 2006 with gypsies. I am actually involved in fund raising activities. I think MESCI will link my volunteering efforts with professional skills.
