Have you heard about the GLF COP19 Social Media BootCamp Program organised by CGIAR (the Global Agricultural Research Partnership) in cooperation with The Global Landscapes Forum ?
In the frame of their continuous support to young professionals in the field of agriculture, CGIAR has waived the entry fee for 2 YPARD members (US$1,400). Mind, Candidates will still have to fund their travel, accommodation and daily expenses.
Chance will be given to young professionals (up to 40 years old) who will prove to fulfill the requirements for the bootcamp participants, as defined in the initial CGIAR announcement. This is not an induction training but a bootcamp for advanced professionals in social media.
