We're delighted thatΒ Alexander Borum, an Advisor on Political and Security Affairs for the Delegation of the European Union in Somalia, has kindly agreed for us to reproduce his periodical list ofΒ internships, traineeships, fellowships and entry-level positions in IR on our website.Β
With 2023 kicking off in just a few days, some of you might be stepping into the new year with a reinvigorated motivation to get on top of the job hunt, chase down an internship or take your professional life to the next level as part of your new year resolution.
To help you on your way, I am happy to share another 237 fresh new opportunities in the international affairs domain.
I hope the curated list of positions will be a help for those of you looking for the next big challenge in the coming year; and please remember, that if you are looking for anything in particular, just leave a comment on the post and I will try to keep an eye out in the coming months!
