Mester Attila
cultural anthropologist
I have 10 years of experience in the civil domain, mainly working in social, cultural, community, digital, sustainability projects. My main area of interest is the integrated approach to social and environmental aspects. I believe in it and I have experienced that the sufferers of social problems often have a high degree of untapped potential, creativity and experience, without which it is not possible to find effective, sustainable solutions to the problems. In the course of my work, I prefer those situations where we work together with those directly involved in the problems on the solutions, in side-by-side relationships, mutually evaluating and taking into account each other's experiences, values and contributions. I am currently a Master of Public Administration student at the Central European University (CEU).
I worked as a volunteer in Profilantrop Association in the first period, I have been employed since 2013. My main activities are: application writing, project planning and coordination, networking, holding trainings, liaising with the Hungarian Anti-Poverty Network, and working as a coordinator and community mentor in the Kisközösségek Átalakulásban project.
