Patrick – AEGEE-Aachen
“I have been a member of AEGEE for almost six years and have been the most active in Human Resources (HR) and Network field; as a board member (HR responsible) in AEGEE-Aachen, and as the Network Commissioner and NetCom speaker. Also, I’ve been active in everything related to our general assemblies – as Agora organizer (Incoming coordinator) at Agora Aachen and Chair Information Technology (IT) technician; and recently our operative planning reform – by developing the methodologies for the pilot European Ideas Factory (EIF) in Gliwice, which has culminated in the EBM reform.”
Martje – AEGEE-Utrecht
Dear future co-trainers, my name is Maartje Natrop, I am a Dutchie, therefore obviously quite direct, very open, and If I am not at the University studying Communication Science, I freelance as a corporate trainer and work as a corporate/internal communication advisor. I have lived in several countries and I am very passionate about cultures, languages, travelling,

and meeting new people (just like every AEGEEan, I guess). Fun facts about me: I am addicted to indoor cycling, chocolate, and watching TV shows.
Of course I also devote some of my free time to my local, AEGEE-Utrecht, where I am the president of the Events Committee, and organise Local Training Courses (LTC). For example, in February, I organized a fundraising LTC. In December I was a participant in European School 1 (ES1) and just now I came back from Training for Trainers (T4T). I hope to start training very soon and share my knowledge in the field of (intercultural) communication, soft skills, and fundraising, and to start putting all the training skills, methods, and theories I learned into practice.
Caro – AEGEE-Passau
My name is Caro, I’m 22 and exactly three years ago, in April 2009 I started my long-term relationship with my beloved antenna AEGEE-Passau, where
Caro – AEGEE-Passau
I am the current president. Since I joined AEGEE I’ve had the chance to meet so many friends, to shape the Europe of tomorrow, and to develop myself to the extent I could not imagine before. Through AEGEE I experienced what it means to dedicate a lot of energy to youth work and also what it gives back. Now, as a member of the Academy I want to share my experience and support others in their development. I get a lot of motivation and energy from helping others, and for me, delivering trainings is a challenge but also a big pleasure. I am passionate about motivation theories, intercultural competence, communication, and international teamwork. I am eager to develop my knowledge in other fields such as emotional intelligence. Besides AEGEE I gained some experience in organising and facilitating international youth exchanges and in managing an international student network. I am really looking forward to being a member of the Academy family!
