He was a project officer in the Social Cohesion Research and Early Warning Division at the Council of Europe and has been involved with Romania's Peace Institute (PATRIR) since 2011 as part of the Department of Peace Operations. Right before joinging the Fellowship School, Andrei was participating in a short term European Voluntary Service project called "Human Rights Caravan" in Georgia. Last but not least, Andrei is a member of Edgeryders. It is a growing community of individuals who come together, inspire one another and help each other to affect changes that improve well being of people in our local environments. Its goal is to produce a shared vision of how Europe’s young citizens could claim a stronger influence on their common future – and a larger share of the social responsibility that goes with it.
