Yasmine Majdoub

I obtained my Bachelor’s Degree in 2017, specializing in Arts, and I came to the capital to pursue my studies. I enrolled in a preparatory institute and had two years of intense training in English literature, civilization, and language. I obtained my diploma by the end of my third year at the Faculty of 9 Avril. Later on, I wanted a shift in my career, so I looked for a master’s program that could suit me and align with my ambitions. That’s when I heard about the Migration Studies MA and decided to apply. It was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made in my career.

On a more professional level, I’ve been a freelance translator for many years, as much as the opportunity presented itself. I also had a part-time teaching job where I taught English to young beginners. I later entered the field that interested me more in February 2024 when I had the opportunity to intern at Terre d’Asile Tunisie, which was a fruitful first experience for me in this domain that intrigued me. Not only did I deepen my theoretical knowledge about migration, but I also gained more administrative knowledge. I had the opportunity to learn how NGOs work from within, while also expanding my network by meeting many influential people. I later gained research experience with another NGO in Tunis, which also helped me enhance both my theoretical and practical knowledge about migration.

Last but not least, I heard about the Lazord fellowship through a friend who was a fellow as well. She highly encouraged me to apply, and I did. I’m now a fellow at the Lazord program within the Arab Institute of Human Rights, in the Migration department. I’m part of a dynamic team, and I believe I am a good fit.
