Hi everyone! My name is Aras, and I am from Türkiye.

I have always been deeply passionate about social initiatives, exploring different political views and ideological systems and understanding the complex dynamics that shape our world.

In high school, I managed our Debate Club for two years. My drive for community service led me to participate in diverse initiatives, including a two-month Erasmus+ sustainable agriculture program in Italy, and teaching chess to visually impaired individuals through the EU Checkmate project.

Sports are also a huge part of my life; playing for a U18 basketball youth academy team taught me resilience and teamwork.

Academically, I am fascinated by international organizations, global political initiatives, and comparative governance. I am excited to bring these experiences to Rome, broaden my perspectives, and learn from all of you!
