Experience in volunteer branch: little Position in the YTNF project: steering group member of YTNF and member of Human Rights group PMT

Education: Buryat State University, Ulan-Ude, German language department Job: German language assistant at the department of German language, post-graduate in Culture studies I find YTNF project: very difficult and very easy at the same time, but useful anyway

My personal logo: Communication and education needed!!!!

Hobbies: jogging, reading, having nice time with my niece, communicating, drinking good coffee in the Ulan-Ude café "Marco Polo", handicrafts, listening to music, dancing, a little aerobic, learning foreign languages, cooking

Favourite music: Enya, Mohicans, Placebo, Cranberries, soundtracks from "Shrek", French musical "Romeo et Juliette", Shakira, Eros Ramazzotti

Why I want to participate in YTNF: I like the slogan of the German Brockhaus "Wer mehr weiss, kann mehr bewegen" (Who knows more, can move more) very much, and I think that the meaning of the slogan is realized by the activities of this great project.
Last time I considered I had lots of "clever" thoughts about changing the world in my head, but it doesn’t help much, because the most important thing is acting.
People need to act.
Both education and concrete actions are what the YTNF project aims to do.
Respecting human rights are the basic tenants of a happy life of people the world over, it seems to be so easy, but when will people start to realise it?
