The School of
Peacemaking and Media Technology in Central Asia announces an annual
competition among students from Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan and any countries,

The selected interns will be trained in new analytical tools, will have access to databases, and together with the team, will conduct a few studies.
Participation in the project is a good practice, upon completion of which an internship confirmation letter will be issued. An important criterion for selecting interns is language proficiency, perseverance, attentiveness, a clear application of methodology and indicators in practice, a desire to work with large amounts of information.
