Hello- I am a young Algerian student, age 23. Currently, I am continuing my studies in a masters programme at the University of USTHB. As an Algerian and a member of an organisation for Algerian students, the ONEA, I would like to become a member of your organisation. Please know that taking this step will be an opportunity to give something to my country, Algeria. I await your quick response. -Sincerely
