Internship at the Permanent Representation of the Czech Republic to the European Union (12.2–12.4.2024)

During my two-month internship at the Permanent Representation of the Czech Republic to the European Union in Brussels, I worked under the supervision of Tomas Vacenovsky and Vera Kohoutkova in the Department of Agriculture and Environment. The goal of the internship was to gain practical experience in the field of European Union policy. I enhanced my knowledge and skills in communication, organization, language proficiency, and teamwork. I also became familiar with the functioning of the European Union and its communication processes. Additionally, I actively contributed to policy analysis and discussions related to aquaculture in the EU. The insights gained will be valuable both for my research activities and for collaboration with Czech partners in the field of aquaculture.
