During her time at UVM, Annika realized her passion for\nthe anthropological side of her education in which she explores cross-cultural\nphenomenon related to her studies. Last semester, she wrote a research paper\nabout the Migrant Justice organization which captured her interest in migrant\njustice projects in Vermont. Through her investigation and discussions with\nfaculty, she came to learn about Huertas and the work that it does to benefit\nLatinx farmworkers in need of better food-security measures. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When asked what specifically drew her to Huertas, Annika\nsaid that she took a gap year from college and travelled through Peru, Mexico\nand Bolivia, where she became very passionate about environmental work and food\nsecurity issues in Latin American countries. During her gap year, Annika also\ninterned at the Boston non-profit, Corporate Accountability, that worked with policy\nsurrounding human rights issues. Since coming to Burlington, Annika confesses\nthat she has felt disconnected from the global studies and anthropological\naspect of human rights. Therefore, she is extremely excited for this hands-on\nexperience with Huertas!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In her internship this season, Annika hopes to improve her fluency level in Spanish, flexibility and organizational skills, as well as her skills as a \u201cself-starter.\u201d Her goals during her time with Huertas are to meet the migrant participants, learn their stories, share what she knows about food-security, as well as to get to know the other interns. Next fall, Annika will be traveling abroad to Nepal through a field-based program with an independent research project called \u201cDevelopment, Gender and Social Change.\u201d In the future, Annika wants to pursue international environmental justice and work for a NGO related to those interests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/huertas\/files\/2019\/02\/image-1024x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-301\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/huertas\/files\/2019\/02\/image-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/huertas\/files\/2019\/02\/image-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/huertas\/files\/2019\/02\/image-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/huertas\/files\/2019\/02\/image-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/huertas\/files\/2019\/02\/image.png 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>************************************************************************<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u00a1Bienvenidos, Annika!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Annika es una becaria de campo para Huertas esta estaci\u00f3n, una estudiante dedicado al grado de Ciencia Medioambiental con un menor en Construcci\u00f3n Verde a la Universidad de Vermont. Durante su tiempo a UVM, Annika se da cuenta de su pasi\u00f3n para el lado antropol\u00f3gico de su educaci\u00f3n en cu\u00e1l explora fen\u00f3meno intercultural relacionado con sus estudios. El semestre pasado, ella escrib\u00ed un trabajo de investigaci\u00f3n sobre la organizaci\u00f3n de Justicia Migrante que captura su inter\u00e9s en los proyectos de la justicia migrante en Vermont. A trav\u00e9s de su investigaci\u00f3n y discusiones con facultad, Annika aprendi\u00f3 sobre Huertas y el trabajo que lo hice para mejorar las vidas de trabajadores agr\u00edcolas Latinx que necesitan mejores medidas de seguridad alimentaria. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cuando se pregunt\u00f3 sobre qu\u00e9 le llev\u00f3 a Huertas, Annika dijo que tom\u00f3 un a\u00f1o sab\u00e1tico de universidad y viajaba a trav\u00e9s de Per\u00fa, M\u00e9xico y Bolivia, d\u00f3nde ella se hizo muy apasionado sobre el trabajo medioambiental y las cuestiones de seguridad alimentaria en pa\u00edses latinoamericanos.
