Funded traineeship for young graduates at Political Section of EU Delegation to Ukraine 

The EU Delegation to Ukraine is looking for young graduates interested in international relations and curious to learn more about the work of a diplomatic mission and how the EU Delegation represents EU interests and values in Ukraine.

The EU Delegation offers a traineeship of up to six months in 2026 within its Political Section. The tentative start date is June 2026.

The intern will be fully embedded in the work of the section. He/she will develop analysis of the political landscape in Ukraine; gather data and analysis of social and economic indicators in the country; participate in internal and external meetings/events and report about them; and assist the work of the Section as necessary.

Due to the ongoing Russian aggression against Ukraine, only applicants currently residing in Ukraine will be considered. The applicants should have a Bachelor degree in international relations, political science, law, sociology, economics or related field and completed or ongoing master studies, and a very good command of Ukrainian and English languages.

The deadline for applications is 26 April.
