OBJECTIVE:
As a dedicated and passionate Sociology student, I am seeking an opportunity to contribute
meaningfully to research, community engagement, or policy development initiatives. With a strong
academic foundation in understanding human behavior, social institutions, cultural dynamics, and
societal challenges, I aim to apply my knowledge to real-life settings that promote social justice,
equity, and sustainable development. I am particularly interested in working with organizations that
address issues such as gender equality, education, health, poverty, and youth empowerment. My
goal is to gain practical experience, enhance my critical thinking and interpersonal skills, and
prepare for a professional career that fosters positive social change.
