Sofie Ceuppens

My name is Sofie Ceuppens, I am a social worker and a student from the Inter University Master of Arts in Gender and Diversity. In the past I did an internship for 6 months as a social worker in Bolivia, where my main tasks were increasing knowledge on women’s rights and raising awareness to end gender violence. Last year I went to Cuba for CHanGE, an UCOS project on gender equality and sexual and reproductive rights and health. For my thesis, I am investigating the experiences of Chilean women on the Flemish labour market, where I will make a distinction between political and economic refugees.
