Social Media Assistant for Mission 89

Mission 89’s aim is to mitigate child trafficking in sports through research, education, and the implementation of mandatory regulations to keep sports training academies accountable for the safety and well-being of children in their care.

During my part-time internship (April 2020-September 2020) as Social Media Assistant at Mission 89, I was in charge of creating, leading and managing a social media campaign. This campaign was focussed on human trafficking within football and took place during the football summer transfer window dates. I started by creating the whole concept for the campaign to be launched June 15th 2020. I then proceeded to gathering information from research assistants at Mission 89 and other outside sources such as the official Ambassador of Mission 89 and a collaboration with EFAA.

Part of my work was also content creation, therefore, I was in charge of creating visuals/graphics for this campaign. They were all created using Photoshop.

Finally, I took a big part in video editing. I edited this interview below with Faisal Paktian, a colleague of mine during the intenrship
