IVY Reporter for the Interreg Programme Netherlands-Flanders (Vlaaned)

The Joint Secretariat Interreg Vlaanderen-Nederland is looking for two volunteers!

The Interreg programme Vlaanderen-Nederland focuses on strengthening the five Flemish provinces in Belgium and the three southern provinces of The Netherlands. Four are the main priorities for this border area: 

• innovation and research infrastructure,



• training and the functioning of the labour market,



• adaptation to climate change, biodiversity and air pollution prevention, sustainable
  leisure activities and tourism,



• solving administrative-legal bottlenecks at the border.

The volunteers will support the programme in reaching these priorities through communication activities, carrying out the following tasks:

• Coming up with ideas and input for the communication plan;


• Contacting, informing and making agreements with involved project partners for conducting interviews, articles, videos/podcast, etc;


• Support the promotion of Interreg projects by going on site and taking interviews and photos;


• Writing and/or editing articles or videos and publish them on the website and social media channels;


• Contribute to the newsletter;


• Participate in the daily operation of the secretariat and attend the weekly meetings.
