Dear fellow ADH students,

I am writing to you to tell you that I’m running for President of the
“AEADH”.
Since Ellen launched this process, a couple of weeks ago, I actively prepared
the Statutes of what will become the “AEADH” next Thursday. Indeed, I am
really keen to create this association. I think we all felt that the Master’s
students should be better informed and play a more active role in all of the
Academy’s other projects and activities. The association will best represent
the students’ interests at all levels of the Academy and help them become
more involved in all of the Academy’s matters. I am really enthusiastic about
all that we can do together!
If you elect me I will represent you at the official boards of the ADH, and
provide you with comprehensive information about the Academy’s decisions and
activities. I will also arrange meetings with previous students of the ADH and
of the CUDIH for us to have better ideas of what we could do after finishing
the master’s programme, and will try to set up informal meetings with persons
already well established in the field of humanitarian law. But what is more, I
will also create links with theatres or exhibitions in Geneva, in order to
organise events and activities which will strengthen our common student life.
In short, I want us to improve the exchange amongst students so that we make
the most of our time in Geneva!

And of course, the association should also think of making the start in Geneva
as smooth as possible for future ADH students. In this respect, for example, I
will compile informational guides regarding administrative tasks and
accommodation. But I will also be working closely with the administration of
the Academy in order to organise an “integration week-end” for the start of
the new year. And in order to get all students more involved, I also propose
setting up “tandems” which would enable each of the future student to be in
touch with one of the willing current student, so that both benefit from a
privileged and long-lasting relationship, which may not only be beneficial
during our studies but also in our professional lives.

I am convinced that my previous experience in running student societies will be
helpful, but the best thing I can offer you is my motivation!

Please don’t forget to vote from Wednesday on!
It will be YOUR association,so do what you think is the best for you!

Chers académiciens ;-)

Je vous envoie ce mail afin de vous informer de ma candidature au poste de
Présidente de l’Association des Etudiants de l’Académie de Droit
Humanitaire et de Droits Humains « A.E.A.D.H. »
Depuis qu’Ellen a amorcé son processus de création il y a déjà quelques
semaines, j’ai activement pris part à la rédaction des Statuts de ce qui
deviendra jeudi prochain l’ « A.E.A.D.H.. »
En effet, je suis particulièrement intéressée par la création de cette
association. Je pense que nous ressentons tous le besoin d’être mieux
informés et de jouer un plus grand rôle dans les divers projets et activités
de l’Académie. L’association tend à représenter au mieux les intérêts
des étudiants à tous les niveaux de l’Académie et à faciliter leur
implication dans tous ses domaines d’action. Je suis vraiment enthousiaste à
l’idée de tout ce que nous pouvons réaliser ensemble !

Si vous m’élisez, je serai en mesure de vous représenter aux Conseils
d’Administration et autres instances de l’ADH, et de vous fournir des
renseignements quant aux décisions et activités adoptées par l’Académie.
J’organiserai également des rencontres avec d’anciens étudiants de
l’ADH et du CUDIH afin de permettre une plus grande information sur les
possibilités qui nous seront ouvertes à la fin du programme, mais aussi des
réunions informelles avec des personnes déjà reconnues dans le domaine du
droit humanitaire et autres matières connexes. Par ailleurs, j’entreprendrai
d’établir des liens avec des théâtres ou autres établissements culturels
à Genève afin d’organiser des évènements ou activités contribuant à
l’amélioration de notre vie étudiante. En fait, je vise à renforcer les
échanges entre les étudiants afin que chacun profite au mieux de son séjour
à Genève !
Il conviendra également de faciliter autant que possible l’arrivée à
Genève des futurs étudiants de l’Académie. Dans cette perspective,
j’aimerais réaliser une brochure susceptible d’apporter des conseils en ce
qui concerne les procédures administratives et les logements à Genève. Il
sera également bien d’organiser, en collaboration avec l’administration de
l’Académie, un week-end d’intégration en début d’année académique.
Par ailleurs, afin d’impliquer chaque étudiant, je proposerai
l’organisation d’un système de « parrainage » selon lequel chaque nouvel
étudiant pourrait être mis en contact avec un étudiant actuel qui le
souhaite, de sorte que tous deux bénéficient d’une relation privilégiée,
utile tant durant leurs études qu’au cours de leur vie professionnelle.

Je suis convaincue que mon expérience passée de Secrétaire et de Responsable
Pédagogique dans les Comités d’autres associations me sera utile. Mais au
delà de cela, la meilleure chose que je peux vous offrir reste ma motivation
!

N’oubliez pas de voter à partir de mercredi!
A.E.A.D.H. sera VOTRE association, donc faites en ce que vous voulez qu’elle
devienne !
