How to find new roles in UK International Development sector
It’s not easy finding your feet in the International Development sector. Thankfully the REDI Collective is full of experienced practitioners with lots of wisdom to share. Our August Meet and Greet made room for new graduates to learn from REDI members, share with each other and we encouraged them to reach out to our wider network as well. As well as sharing organisations, websites and the inside scoop on how global development works, we also suggested that budding development professionals read around the sector.
Here are some resources mentioned on the call:
