Betreft: Vacature voor stageplaats bij Permanente Vertegenwoordiging van België in Straatsburg met oog op Belgisch Voorzitterschap Raad van Europa


Geachte mevrouw Vandenplas,


In bijlage van deze mail vindt u een vacature voor stageplaatsen bij de Permanente Vertegenwoordiging van België bij de Raad van Europa in Straatsburg, voor de periode september 2014 – juni 2015.

Zoals u allicht weet, is België van november 2014 tot mei 2015 voorzitter van het Comité van Ministers van de Raad van Europa. Dat is een periode van extra bedrijvigheid en daarom zijn we op zoek naar versterking.

Voor de studenten is het een unieke gelegenheid om een kijkje te nemen in de keuken van de multilaterale diplomatie, rond de thema’s mensenrechten, democratie en rechtsstaat. De stage is ook een goede voorbereiding op het diplomatieke examen. In september 2014 wordt een nieuwe procedure opgestart. (www.selor.be)

Mag ik u vragen de vacature in bijlage ad valvas te willen uithangen en eventueel ook te zorgen voor een elektronische verspreiding ?

Met de meeste hoogachting,

Dirk Van Eeckhout
Ambassadeur
Permanent Vertegenwoordiger van België bij de Raad van Europa
