NEWS! GAEA at the Career Fair in Prague

Since GAEA was founded last January, things have been moving quickly.  Step by step, we have grown, developed our network, engaged in our first working partnership as a member of the organizational team for the youth session of the second Global Landscapes Forum (GLF14) and initiated our first video project, among other efforts. Though our members are scattered on different continents, we have kept in regular contact and shared and pursued our ideas through endless webinars and tireless remote collaboration. Last Tuesday, September 16, a team of us finally had the occasion to meet in Prague, face to face! We were invited by the Young Professionals for Agricultural Development (YPARD) and Agrinatura to participate in the Career Fair day, held just prior to the opening of the Tropentag conference. The fair, divided into three different sessions, aimed at discussing the difficulties young graduates face when attempting to enter the job market as well as to bring together passionate young people working in agricultural issues in order to develop networks, synergies and ideas. At the career fair, we gave an insight on GAEA’s (short) history by discussing the steps that led to shape our identity, such as developing our mission, values and first project ideas. We shared the third session of the Fair together with two inspiring young entrepreneurs, Pavlos Georgiadis and Petr Jiskra, who told the story of their initiative We Deliver Taste. We hope to participate again in the future at such events, and with more initiatives and projects to show. These occasions are wonderful opportunities to meet face to face with inspiring people, catalysing new ideas and sprouting new networks.
