Natavan Elchiyeva
Program Assistant
Implementation & Counceling With JAA since:24 September, 2009
Every motivated person has a goal in his/her life. I always wanted to contribute to the educational part of my country, to be a part of its development, to bring innovative ways for the country’s prospective and bright future. Education is like countless opportunities for the people from closed door areas. That is why I always payed a crucial attention to my education. I entered one of the Azerbaijani Universities and continued my education in the USA. I participated in a number of trainings, lectures which were held locally and internationally on peace, global and educational problems. Being aware that the goal of the organization is to help young people to succeed in a global economy I had a huge will to join it. JAA is a bridge from my goals to their realizations since it is where I can be a viable person for my community members and give a helping hand to the pupils and students from Baku and regions.
