We are a non-profit organisation dedicated to civic engagement. We offer political awareness trainings, providing an overview of the political landscape as well as an objective analysis of what political actors have put in place, both at Belgian and European level.

Who Are We ?

"My degree in Economics and Statistics from the University of Maastricht gives me solid expertise in political and economic analysis. My participation in the MARBLE programme of excellence and my experience of over 300 hours as a tutor in economics, mathematics and statistics have given me a remarkable ability to break down and explain the complexities of political and economic systems. Sumatra Innovation was created with one ambition in mind: to make politics accessible to everyone. Aware of the impact it has on our daily lives, I've always believed that politics should be taught from an early age."

"Having completed a number of training courses in the field of animation, I have extensive experience in the creation of games, including for people with disabilities. My past experience as a holiday centre coordinator and activity leader trainer gives me the ability to create learning environments that are inclusive, stimulating and fun. So I want to use these skills to help Sumatra Innovation turn political debates that are difficult to understand and sometimes boring into something fun and interactive."

"My bachelor's degree in European Studies at Maastricht University and my internships have given me an in-depth understanding of the history and functioning of the European Union, including the dynamics between the institutions legislative process of European policies. Thanks to my specialisation courses in European affairs and international relations, I have acquired knowledge about the EU's external relations, with a particular interest in transatlantic cooperation. Through Sumatra Innovation, I want to share my knowledge and build on it."

Emilie Roland

"My training in political science led me to discover a real interest for politics and all the subjects that revolve around it. I really grasped its impact on our daily lives, and the importance of being informed and able to take action on these different aspects. Through my experience in youth animation, I became aware of the lack of interest in politics among young people and the need to give them a taste for it and the desire to take an interest. Through Sumatra Innovation, I want to give new impetus to political subjects and issues in order to inspire young people to get involved and take action."
