The Centre français de recherche en sciences sociales is actively seeking interns for periods of one to several months. It offers the exceptional opportunity to work as part of a team of researchers in a laboratory based in Prague, under the joint supervision of the French Ministry of Europe and Foreign Affairs and the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS), and liaising with researchers based in the four countries of the Visegrád group.
Internships may be scientific in nature (fieldwork or consulting archives as part of a research project, joining the centre’s scientific network, etc.) or administrative. In both cases, the aim of the proposed internship is to contribute to CEFRES’ scientific development missions and to provide support for the running of the research centre in collaboration with its team.

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine marks the return of war to Europe. Although the war dates back to the 2014 armed conflict in Donbas, with the war of aggression against Ukraine, it is now taking on an unprecedented scale. This war is also fought in the field of information and interpretation, posing major challenges for the humanities and social sciences. Located in the heart of Central Europe directly affected by the war, CEFRES is hosting a series of webinars and offers fellowships for Ukrainian researchers.
