General functions

Five interns are allocated to specific divisions of the 澳门六合彩官网资料 Secretariat in accordance with the needs and priorities of the organization and based on the areas of interest of the applicant. The areas of work may include agriculture, dispute settlement, intellectual property rights, government procurement (GPA), competition policy, market access, rules, trade and development, trade and environment, trade in services and investment, trade facilitation, trade policy analysis and trade-related technical assistance.

Assignments given to interns are intended to enhance their understanding of trade law, economics and trade policies more generally. The needs of the division are balanced with the capacity-building needs of the interns. Under the supervision of a professional staff member, interns are expected to assist the division in its regular work.

Duration

Remuneration and benefits

Interns under the programme receive a daily allowance of CHF 90 (including weekends and official holidays that occur within the selected periods).  In addition, travel expenses (economy class air fare) to and from Geneva are also covered by the programme.
