My name is Michela Bracone, I'm from Italy and I'm 26 years old. I obtained my Bachelors degree in International Relation at the University of Bologna and my Masters Degree in International Cooperation and Development at “La Sapienza” University of Rome in March 2014. During my academic career and through the participation in numerous seminars and activities of national and international volunteering, I had the opportunity to approach today’s most crucial issues such as underdevelopment, poverty, hunger, the importance of a sustainable development and environmental protection. This is the reason why I decided to apply for MESCI Master At the end of the course, I hope to enrich my skills and knowledge and to be ready for the working world.
