European Roma Information Office (ERIO), Brussels
Part-time internship
Deadline for application: As soon as possible
The European Roma Information Office (ERIO) was founded in 2003 as a non-profit organisation under Belgian law, working with an international and European scope. In spite of the role that we play in the advocacy of Roma rights at the European level, we do not seek to replace any other Roma organisations. As an informational platform, ERIO ensures that the voices of all European Roma are heard by EU and governmental officials. Our work currently focuses on anti-discrimination policies in the fields of education, employment, healthcare and housing.
ERIO has a position for a 5-month part-time internship (minimum 3 days per week) starting as soon as possible.
