Professional Experience: |
I have proven experiences in litigation and advocacy for the promotion and protection of minority and indigenous rights through working at Minority Rights Group International,International Movement Against All Forms of Discrimination (IMADR) and Rene Cassin.
Through the experiences as a campaign coordinator at Asia Pacific Youth Network (APYN) and as a public relations intern at Amnesty International Japan, I enriched me with good campaign and communications skills. Previously, as a chair, I organised the student-led 3-day conference called '3rd Human Rights in Asia Conference' in June 2010. I was involved with entire organising processes, espeacially fundraising and logistics.

Education: |
MA in the Theory and Practice of Human Rights
2010- 2011
University of Essex (Colchester, UK)
The course aimed to provide human rights professionals through its theoretical and practical study.
Mainly, I undertook law modules such as the “International Human Rights Law”, “Human Rights and Development” and the “Economic, Social and Cultural Rights”.
The concept of my dissertation was how human rights norms can effectively contribute to sustainable tourism for development as I have the Bachelors degree in Tourism and Hospitality Management in which I focused on sustainable tourism.
