Project Trajectory

I am here collecting a gallery of the projects that I have led from 2015 onwards, and from which I continue and build my path. All of the projects focus in one way or another on equality issues, empowerment and human rights. The methods has been an array of educational, journalistic, research, rehabilitating and arrange social activities to create natural platforms for social encounters over ethnic, gender and language borders. The target groups has been both youth and adults, in educational institutions and outside them. All of these projects has operated with me, Nana Blomqvist as the project manager.
