Joanna Andrecka is a third year student of law at the University of Lodz In Poland. Currently she is studying at the Vilnius University, as a part of the six-month Erasmus exchange.

 In the course of her studies, she had an opportunity to be acquainted with the broad spectrum of law areas that is implied on this field of study. However this student is interested the most in the civil law branch, patent law, protection of intellectual and industrial property rights and also in mediations. What is more, recently she focused on the Human Rights in the European Union as well. One of the subjects that she takes part in at the university in Vilnius in Law Department is Human Rights in Europe, the course is unbelievably interesting to her and helped her to spot how many issues and problems are the results of breaking the human rights, the incident that sadly is so frequent nowadays. Joanna organizes her time in a perfect way, so that she managed to devote her free days for the work in EFHR and she hopes that she will be able not only to popularize activity of the foundation, but also to contribute to the real help for the concrete people, also for those from minorities.

Law issues are not her only interests. She devotes her free time for other passions as well. She is a big fan of the cinema from a few years, she regularly experiences her knowledge in the area of film, she takes part in different festivals, follows every film or cultural events and writes reviews. Moreover, she is fascinated by travels, she was visiting various, also those most exotic countries even when she was a child. During such expeditions she was always trying to get to know the culture of a place that she was currently in, wanted to know more about the people living there. It was very often linked with travelling in difficult conditions. However, those experiences caused her to look at the world in a different way, taught her humility and  respect for another human, all of these factors she can now use by working for EFHR.
