The Open Society Institute, in association with the European Commission, offers internships for young Roma university graduates from all new EU member states (excluding Cyprus and Malta), Croatia, Macedonia, Montenegro, and Serbia (including Kosovo).
The internships involve working in one of the Commission’s departments. The aims of the program are:
- to give Roma interns a general idea of the objectives and challenges of European integration;
- to provide practical knowledge of the working of Commission departments;
- to enable interns to acquire personal experience by means of the contacts made in the course of everyday work;
- to enable them to further and put into practice the knowledge they have acquired during their studies or professional careers.
For additional information, see the internship guidelines.
