My name is Edit Babameto, a Young European Ambassador with the WeBalkans, passionate about integrating the Western Balkans within the European Union step by step, and making EU topics a little less intimidating for young people. Having graduated summa cum laude, I hold a Master of Science in “Policies and Governance in Europe”. I have previously completed two traineeships at the European Parliament in Brussels, working with the Western Balkans Delegation. This experience gave me a close look at how European policy, diplomacy, and regional cooperation actually happen behind the scenes. Along the way, I became quite fluent in Brussels bureaucracy, although I have yet to learn how to navigate when a “final draft” is actually final, and how many cups of coffee it takes to get us there. Through my work and engagement, I am particularly interested in strengthening dialogue between the European Union and the Western Balkans and encouraging greater youth participation in European affairs.
