The EU Delegation to Myanmar based in Yangon is offering the
opportunity of an unpaid internship to gain experience in the field of
European Union Development Cooperation. Starting respectively in mid-June
2016 and in mid-July 2016, two interns will be able to join the
Development Section of the EU Delegation for a period of six months.
Candidates must be citizens of the European Union.
Tasks assigned to the interns can include:
Conducting research related to the EU development
project portfolio in Myanmar, mainly on the areas of the Multiannual
Indicative Programme for Myanmar (Rural Development, Education, Governance and
Peace-building).
Contributing to the preparation of reports, studies,
briefing notes or background analyses on specific occasions or subjects (visit
of high-ranking officials from HQ, political negotiations or conferences, etc).
Providing support on full project cycle management, and in
particular to the design, supervision and monitoring of EU-funded development
interventions in Myanmar.
Assisting with the formulation of new projects and the
preparation of guidelines, calls for proposals, contracts and grant agreements
in the case of competitive processes.
Attending meetings with donors and implementing partners.
Contributing to the preparation of workshops, seminars,
conferences and other public events, and supporting visibility and
communication activities.
Contributing to the production of publications.
Myanmar remains one of the least developed countries in the
region. With this in mind, candidates are advised that living conditions in
Yangon can be challenging.
Excellent analytical, communication and drafting skills in
English are an ESSENTIAL pre-requisite for the internship as is full computer
literacy. Applicants should be graduate students with strong backgrounds in
government, development, and/or international
relations. Specific experience and interest in Myanmar or S.E. Asia would
be an asset. Candidates should send a CV and cover letter todelegation-myanmar-operations@eeas.europa.eu before
25/03/2016 with "Internship application – Operations Section" in the
subject line.
