Start your career with an unforgettable experience! Emagister presents an exciting internship program: Wildlife and Landscape Photography, offered by the Archipelagos Center, Institute of Marine Conservation.
The conservation efforts of the Archipelagos Institute can be more successful when shared with local communities and the general public. In this sense, photography is a valuable tool to represent the biodiversity of the Aegean Islands, as well as the activities carried out by the Institute. Focusing on numerous subjects, photography interns participate in a variety of projects, collaborating with different scientific teams.
Graduates, students and volunteers can be part of this work through an internship, which they can request in order to enrich their knowledge with the practical experience of working on field research and conservation projects. A series of key scientific conservation topics are addressed, providing participants with field research experience contributing directly to the future of this unique ecosystem.
We invite you to be part of this adventure that will help you develop your professional and personal skills. To learn more about this program, request more information through Emagister and we will contact you to provide advice.
