Are You Ready to Join Our International Team?
Why STEAR?
Would you like to make a real impact on the discussions shaping the future of Europe and Asia? Are you keen to work with a diverse team as part of a multinational think tank? Do you already have some experience working in a think tank, or are you looking to gain some? Are you interested in policy work and cultural exchange? Then you have come to the right place!
Here at STEAR, we are looking to shape the future of Europe-Asia relations and change the world for the better. We recognise that young people today are expected to do more in less time than ever before. We want you to see the opportunity of working for us as more than just another name on your CV. We want to help you grow as a professional and as a person - and have some fun along the way.
In joining STEAR you have the opportunity to be part of a growing and ambitious think tank, the first youth organisation focusing on Europe-Asia relations, producing high quality content and offering unique opportunities to youth across Eurasia. You get to be part of a dynamic network of young people from across the world and work with them on projects of your choosing. We believe in community-based and community-led learning. You will not so much be asked to participate in a project as to innovate and create one.
Besides the network and experience, we are keen to offer a professional development programme, through our unique events and trainings, allowing you to expand your skillset.
