Gabriel Wirkierman (interned for 6 months at René Cassin in 2011):

'Interning for René Cassin has been an opportunity and a privilege.

While at RC, I was in charge of conducting campaign research on Human Trafficking and wrote a report on the situation in the State of Israel.

I had the opportunity to work with professionals from all backgrounds and engage with them. The ability to have a certain kind of power to exercise change in society according to universal and Jewish values represents something unique for me.

Many thanks are to my colleagues Simone and Shannah and every other friend without whom my experience at the JHub would not have been the same.'
