My internship's main tasks at Girls’ Space (Tyttöjen Tila) included: ✔️ organising and facilitating open groups and a weekly support group for LGBTQIA youth ✔️ youth guidance ✔️ assessment and report writing ✔️ creating content and managing social media accounts ✔️ creating marketing materials Feedback from my internship mentor Laura: "Noora suoriutui työharjoittelujaksosta erinomaisesti. Hän omaksui hyvin nopeasti Tyttöjen Tilan toimintaperiaatteet ja arvot (sukupuoli- ja kulttuurisensitiivinen työote). Ohjaajana Noora on helposti lähestyttävä ja empaattinen. Hän kohtaa nuoret yksilöinä ja osaa antaa heille myös tilaa. Nuoret kokivat, että häneen voi luottaa ja hänet otettiin hyvin vastaan. Hänellä on herkkyyttä aistia eri tilanteita ja osaa toimia haastavissakin tilanteissa sensitiivisesti. Nooran tuottamat sisällöt Tyttöjen Tilan sosiaaliseen mediaan saivat positiivista palautetta ja huomiota. Työntekijänä Noora on luotettava ja tarttuu annettuihin tehtäviin reippaasti sekä tuo myös omia ideoitaan esille. Hän on todella oma-aloitteinen ja usein askeleen edellä! Hänen kanssa on helppo työskennellä ja hän luo positiivista ilmapiiriä työpaikalle. Tiimityössä hän kohtaa muut kunnioittavasti ja hänellä on hyvät sosiaaliset taidot. Hänestä tuli nopeasti tärkeä tiimin jäsen ja oli suuri apu meille." Show less
