Janna Schönfeld

Germany (Belgium)

I'm Janna (Maite Galina) Schönfeld and currently working in the European Parliament in Brussels for a German Green deputy. I have a Masters in International Studies, a Bachelor in European studies and some14 years of experience in working in different NGOs.

When I first heard about the idea of founding a global network of young Green activists, I was immediately fascinated. How cool would that be, to exchange with like-minded youngsters from all corners of the world ? To learn from each other, work and have fun ? So I started becoming more and more active with the preparations of the founding congress in Nairobi and discovered a new passion : fundraising.

In the new Steering Committee, I'd like to continue to work on money issues and on fundraising. In addition, I´d like to work as a hub between all contacts I have (mainly the German Young Greens, the European Green Party, the Green group in the European Parliament and the Global Greens) and GYG.

Last but not least I dont want to hide my secret passion for dancing from you. So whenever you plan a dance event, make sure to include me. :)
