Reflecting on My Internship Journey
During my four-month internship at inclusion Action Damien, I evolved from a student into a reflective professional, gaining hands-on experience in educational programs for inclusion, global citizenship and health.

My journey
Hey Lovies,
In this reflection, I’m going to share my experiences from my four-month internship and talk about how Action Damien has helped me grow as a Master's student in Educational Sciences (MES). This internship was all about using education not just for learning but also for raising awareness, promoting inclusion, and being a good global citizen. It really pushed me to think beyond the traditional classroom and dive into educational design in a non-profit health organization and a multicultural environment.
This reflection is meant to touch on the tasks I tackled, the skills I gained (including soft skills), how far I’ve come with my learning goals, and how the theory from my MES courses informed my practice. Plus, I’ll talk about the teamwork and peer learning that really helped shape my professional journey.
