Hi, my name is Victor, I am 34 years old, and I am a youth worker, trainer, youth policy expert and a community organizer.Even though I own a bachelor’s degree in informatics, in the last 15 years I connected more to the local community’s reality and challenges, rather than to the programming software I studied during college. Since high school I was a volunteer, and then, in the 3 years of college I became, step by step, a member of a project team, the volunteers’ coordinator, a project manager and then founder and president of a non-governmental organization, the Active Development Association ADA, an organization active in the field of youth and participatory democracy.I am currently coordinating more national and international projects, I am also a youth and non-formal education trainer, a coach, a mentor, and a community organizer, being permanently involved in supporting youth initiatives (especially those from vulnerable groups) as well as non-governmental organizations. I was a trainer or facilitator in over 100 national and international projects on various topics, such as European citizenship, youth policies and participation, human rights advocacy, volunteering, social inclusion of disadvantaged groups etc.I have 10+ years of experience in successfully developing youth policies and strategies and since 2018 I am coordinating the European Youth Village program, which became one of the biggest rural youth movements in Europe.
