Augusto Dala Costa

During the internship, I produced a bimonthly news digest regarding Abkhazia and South Ossetia which were published in Portuguese and Spanish, also wrote a short article to be published online by the Foundation, and helped in events (like the South Caucasus Security Forum) whenever possible.

Was responsible for the writing of articles for the sustentabilidade.blog website, ranging from a variety of themes, but always related to sustainability and environmental issues. Also revised and edited other people's articles and dealt with SEO on the publishing part. Quit to pursue a master degree at the University of Glasgow.

Worked in the front-end of websites, dealing with HTML 5 and CSS 3, occasionally dealing with Angular, JQuery and Ionic. Extensive use of the Bootstrap framework. Had to deal directly with clients in person and on the phone on a daily basis, and teamwork with back-end programmers.

Worked mostly within the city archives and at the museum ("Museum of Colonization") of the town, doing catalog and organizational work. Also helped with several tasks on cultural events such as commemoration days and concerts promoted by the Culture Department.
