POLITICS – COOPERATION – DEVELOPMENT
I am Edoardo Costa from Baceno, a small village in the North of Italy. Until December I worked in Colombia at Universidad Piloto de Colombia (Bogotá). During my experience in the Directorate of Research, I visited small villages to speak with farmers disadvantaged by the FARC-Government conflict.
I’ve studied the European Union intervention in the Country through its Peace Laboratories and I worked on the production of a collaborative scientific article on the Alternative Macro-Project Model of Inclusion and Productive Innovation. Three months in Colombia were enough to make me fall in love with this Country and get aware about the heavy issues that afflict it. Walking down the comfort-zone of the capital you don’t realize, but violence is breathable if you approach in outlying areas and you come into contact with communities where trampling of human rights are part of the daily agenda.
Back to Italy recently, I want to put all myself in order to contribute to create a world with more cooperation, political integration and security.
At the moment I am working as Campaing Manager Assistant at Strategycom, a comunication agency based in Milan. I directly assist the organization and management of Roberto Scanagatti’s campaign, actual major and candidate for the Democratic Party in next elections in Monza.
