Two students of School of National Defence to spend six months as Centre’s associate experts
On the basis of agreement on cooperation with the Military Academy of Serbia, two students of Serbian Armed Forces' Command Staff training within the School of National Defence will spend six months in the Centre as associate experts.
Start of their association coincides with the beginning of internship for our new generation of interns: Ivana Popovic, Jelena Kajganovic, Kristina Hajrung, Nevena Manojlovic, Nevenka Gobeljic, Sandra Vucic, Miljana Jeftic, Vanja Dolapcev and Stevan Randjelovic.
Interns have expressed belief how their participation in the programme will contribute to the development of their research capabilities, as well as them being introduced to the context of Serbia's security sector reform and security integration. They also aim to supplement the knowledge gained at the undergraduate level, and become involved in the process of formulation of policy proposals.
