These included preparing an international policy conference in Tunisia on South-South migration and conducting research on new migration flows along the Western Balkan route. These tasks allowed me to deepen my understanding of contemporary issues and hone my skills in project management, data analysis, and report writing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to my internship, I was elected co-head of social events for the Intern Circle Board. This role enriched my communication, leadership, and event management skills, while also allowing me to forge memorable connections that I will cherish throughout my life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I believe that a key factor in securing this internship was my participation in the MDS program as a Master\u2019s candidate. This unique program set me apart from other Canadian candidates by showcasing my specialized knowledge and skills in the field of migration.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Migration and Diaspora Studies MA Student Veronika Frydrych shared her experience as an intern with the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD): Thanks to Quebec&#8217;s Governmental International Organization Internship Program under the Ministry of International Relations and La Francophonie (MRIF), I had the opportunity to intern for six months at the Organisation for Economic [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":5980,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5964","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"acf":{"cu_post_thumbnail":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/mds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5964","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/mds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/mds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/mds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/mds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5964"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/mds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5964\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6332,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/mds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5964\/revisions\/6332"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/mds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5980"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/mds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5964"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/mds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5964"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/mds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5964"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
