Reykjavik City

The Family Center in Gerðuberg is a governmental centre located in Breiðholt district in Reykjavík. The goal of the centre is to bring diversity and inclusion into the society so everyone feels welcomed and feel a sense of belonging in the society despite their background, ethnicity, religion and language.

I was responsible for creating media releases such as brochures, advertisements and social media releases to promote the events. Furthermore, I was also volunteering in the Ambassador project where the goal is to be the representative of people of foreign background to gather ideas to improve people's well-being in society.

Responsibilities:

• Promoted events and created media releases in a professional way
• Managed the organization's Facebook pages and Instagram account
• Worked with members of senior management to present new ideas
• Organised events at the Family Center (e.g., Homework assistance for children, Mindfulness Practice in Spanish, Ambassador project, Watercolor exhibition, Summer Writing Workshops for children, and more).
