I’m a master’s student in social anthropology who’s interested in communications and multiculturality. I want to ensure that students from different fields of studies can build up their skills related to working life and understand how entrepreneurship can be developed to better support the well-being of both humans and the environment. I believe that entrepreneurial skills, like self-leadership, are skills that support students in their studies and working lives.
