Welcome to a conversation about development jobs! During the evening, four people who work in various ways with international development and rights issues will discuss how one can increase their chances of getting an international job, a trainee position or an internship after their studies. You are very welcome to listen, be inspired and ask the questions you have always wanted answers to about the jobs that contribute to sustainable and fair global development!
