For the evaluation of my brief I found interesting and essential to discuss these 3 ideas with some students who are part of my focus group. Their ideas and opinions led me to focus more in my strategy, to redefine my brief and to concentrate more in one of the ideas.

He mentioned that the idea of University it sounds real. “It is interesting to have the choice to improve your knowledge through this kind of education”. Also it will more exciting to study one year, for your masters, in real cases because it will be a motivation to be more concentrate in your mission. You will feel that via your studies you contribute to solve the real problems of human rights.”

He said that it will be great to work during your studies in something relevant with your studies. “Usually, if you study in a university, sometimes you need money to pay your fees. So you are looking for part time jobs, like in pubs and shops. With this idea you can work in something relevant with your skills. This seems to me that in the same time you can have a practice and you can use this experience in your CV.”

She said that in this time if you are a volunteer, charities ask you in which sector do yo want to work and which skills do you want to learn, but the idea of the university and the certifications will be more serious and more useful for a new volunteer. Also she is already a volunteer and she is interesting in human rights and she mentioned about the site that it is fascinating to have a site, especially for human rights, where we can share our ideas about human rights.
