Election post
I am standing for the position of Cultural Events Officer for the European Society because I believe there should be more opportunities to celebrate and showcase the diverse cultures of Europe. Such events not only help people from different European backgrounds feel more ‘at home’ but also allow others to learn about and appreciate the continent’s rich cultural heritage. Coming from a French and Spanish background, I have a deep appreciation for the variety and vibrancy of European cultures, and I know how enriching it can be to experience them through cultural events and exchanges. In terms of experience, I worked in event management for a media company over the summer, where I developed strong organisational skills and gained hands-on experience in planning and delivering high-quality events. For the coming year, I have a range of ideas I’d love to bring to life — including a Flamenco class and social, a European History and Culture pub quiz, a pasta-making workshop, and a wine-tasting social — all designed to make the society engaging, inclusive, and culturally enriching.
