Disability is not an individual issue but a collective one that lies at the core of the way we care for each other. Leonor wants to raise awareness about this topic. She has always been interested in and concerned about the world around her. Since she broke her back and became disabled herself, she’s been on a mission to educate and train people on this theme. She has already created some workshops at the university and wants to continue her career at Leiden University, maybe even pursuing a PhD if there is funding available. Are you considering studying abroad? Originally from Portugal, Leonor first tried an Erasmus in Romania for one week. Afterwards, she decided to study abroad in the Netherlands. At first, she felt like a donkey looking at the palace (Portuguese saying: Como um burro olhando para o palácio), as the study of International Relations and Organisations wasn’t the right fit for her. She switched to Humanities and continues her studies in International Studies.
