Mathieu has been a member of AEGEE-Brussels for 2 years and is now President of his local. He too part in the January meeting of the Youth Employment Project team, where the new objectives of the project were prepared before being presented at Agora Patra. Besides running the local and coordinating the board, he was very involved in the Y-Vote 2014 campaign and organized the closing convention of the project in Brussels together with AEGEE-Europe and the Y-Vote core team.

Mathieu achieved his Masters of European studies last August before starting a traineeship at the European Commission (DG Employment) and worked specifically the Youth Guarantee, the Quality Framework on Traineeships, and the less well-known European Alliance for Apprenticeships. After experiencing for a few months what he has worked on at the Commission (unemployment!), he is coordinator for a Belgian NGO sending and hosting volunteers in international projects.

Mathieu truely believes in non-formal education ways to learn, to gain confidence and trade off the beaten track left by higher education. He considers himself and most of active young leaders he met as learners on the ground who have developed their skills and identity through their own involvement instead of school benches.
