Are you an undergrad, graduate or young professional interested in kickstarting your career in International Development? Do you wish to pursue a career in policy, advocacy, campaigning, research and more?
The Advocacy Team are proud to launch ‘Opening Doors’ a bespoke Virtual Careers Fair, created to support young people who come from backgrounds that are under-represented in the international development sector.
