Giorgia
Mecugni
Ciao a tutti! My name is Giorgia, I am a 22-year-old student from Italy. Currently, I am studying International Studies with a specialisation in Latin America at Leiden University. My passion aside from my studies is Spanish Literature, I love reading and writing poems in my free time. My favourite poet is Federico Garcia Lorca, very recommended!
Alongside my studies and passions, I am a team member of the Communications Team at WIL! I am enthusiastic about my tasks and the creative process behind every post and content my teammates and I create. I decided to join WIL because I believe in its mission of empowering women’s networking and presence in the workplace. As a matter of fact, I am very interested also in my studies about the role and developments of female labor in political economy.
YokO

Hi! My name is Yoko and I’m a second-year student at the Leiden University College in The Hague, majoring in World Politics (WP) and minoring in Governance, Economics and Development (GED). I am German-Indonesian and grew up partly in Allgäu and Bali.
In my academic work, I am drawn to exploring identity and culture. Drawing elements from both my major and minor, such as international relations and development studies, I have become deeply interested in uncovering the subtle, yet detrimental, power imbalances that pervade society.
WHY JOIN OUR TEAM?
Pien Soer,
Graphic Designer 2019-2020
In the WIL Communication Team you get to develop a new skill set while making connections with other women who are advocating gender equality on the work floor. As a Graphic Designer, I have mostly worked on promoting events (both offline and online) together with an awesome team of girls who were very dedicated and motivated. I loved working with WIL and wish them all the best in the upcoming years!
