Insights and Guidance for Young Professionals Entering the Aid & Development Sector
The Australian aid and development sector has a long history of engaging young people as volunteers, employees, and activists within organisations working both locally and globally.
Many young people are keen to find roles that help the poorest and most marginalised people around the world; however, this is a small and competitive sector, which creates challenges for those passionate about securing a role and advancing their early-stage career.
Adding barriers to employment, the sector is changing rapidly as aid budgets shrink, donor expectations change, and jobs change with more roles filled by local, well-educated and supported staff who know their communities' needs best of all.
Join us as we hear from young professionals who are negotiating these challenges, gain insight into different organisations and the jobs available to progress your career.
Women in Aid & development Online event Tuesday, July 15 from 6.30- 7.45 pm
Speaker details coming soon. Make sure to register today and include a speaker question. We would also love to hear where you are on your aid & development career journey, so we can tailor the session to you.
