My Travel Story

I am thrilled that I got accepted to do an internship in South Africa to advocate for human rights! Actually going to a location where human rights violations related to discrimination and inequality increasingly take place would contribute to the credibility of my thesis that I am writing about climate change and human rights. Moreover, it would help me to raise awareness among other people about the gap between the rich and the poor and the suffering of vulnerable groups under climate change who contribute the least to greenhouse gas emissions. 

Besides, becoming aware of the social issues it would also help me to build a network to realize my future prospects, including traveling the world to help people who suffer from human rights violations. I want to see the reality and actually make a change instead of hiding. Please help me in trying to realize this!
