Apply for the Funded traineeship for young graduates at the EU Delegation to Rwanda
The deadline for submitting applications is 07/02/2024.
Are you a young graduate interested in international relations? Are you curious to learn more about work of a diplomatic mission and how the EU Delegation represents EU interests and values in Rwanda?
EU offers:
A funded traineeship of 6 months within the Political, Press and InformationSection of the EU Delegation to Rwanda, starting in March 2024.
The Political, press and information section is in the lead for political reporting, analysis of domestic Rwandan, regional and international developments. This is particularly interesting in regards to the political tensions, but also regional and international dialogue processes in the Great Lakes region. Rwanda in the traineeship period will commemorate 30 years of the genocide against the Tutsi, where we expect high level visits from EU institutions and many activities around this date. Rwanda will hold general and presidential elections in July 2024, adding an extra element of analysis, reporting and media monitoring in the period. The section also manages the social media presence of the EU Delegation to Rwanda.
