Carla Méndez
Montevideo
I am an artisan, I am 23 years old, technical in development and soon I will be graduated in development, from the faculty of social sciences, of the University of the Republic (UDELAR). I am a militant activist in Mizangas, Afro-descendant women and Identidad Afro Rivera. I like to contribute to the fight against racism from various areas: research, intersectional articulation with other groups, direct work with Afro-descendant women, entrepreneurship. I am very interested in this opportunity to make contacts, to be able to bring more information to my group and to my country, and to know about international funds to apply to. I consider that working with youth is fundamental, emphasizing diversity and human rights.
I greet you all from Uruguay!
