AGS students intern at UNEP |
Wednesday, 12 December 2007 |
Two AGS International Relations students have been interning at UNEP during the Fall 2007 semester. Sarah Pedersen's internship (class of 2008) included the development of an online clearinghouse for national programs on SCP (sustainable consumption and production) and the creation of an online database searchable in several different languages and modalities. During her current internship, Jennifer Grant is working on projects related to the "Marrakech Process". This program includes regular global and regional meetings, informal expert task forces and other activities to support the change in consumption and production patterns. It was launched in 2003 at the first international expert meeting co-organized by UNEP on the ten-year framework of programs called for by the Johannesburg Declaration. |

Emirjona CakeAlbania, United States The connections and networks I created at AGS, both with professors and fellow students, have been rewarding, providing me with access to distinguished thinkers and an extensive array of intellects whom I can call friends. AGS provided the base that I needed to catapult myself into the field of International Relations, helping me to gain access to such International Organizations as UNESCO, and allowing me to present at their contemporary and stimulating annual conference.
