Ursula Dechant

Grant Manager

I work as a grant manager and as such I have an overview of all projects of ERSTE Foundation. I am often the first point of contact for our partners and am also involved in the administrative process of many projects.

Living in different countries, meeting different people in Europe and getting to know different cultures have been important experiences for me.

I live life actively every day and consciously pay attention to my surroundings. Taking a course for volunteers in hospice work run by the Dachverband Hospiz Österreich made me realise that people can disappear from our lives, and that we should therefore make the most of the time we have with our loved ones.
