Aileen Baumann

Aileen Baumann (24) is studying International Politics and International Law for her Master’s degree at the University of Kiel. Her semester abroad in Malta has deepened her understanding of Europe’s political and cultural diversity. She is most fascinated by the European Union as a unique project of cross-border cooperation that not only enables but actively shapes the community. Aileen is convinced that joint European action is crucial to sustainably defending shared values such as democracy, the rule of law and solidarity in the face of challenges. She advocates for this through her articles and her involvement with the Young European Federalists.
