Fransk praktikant på Vest-Norges Brusselkontor

Nicolas Chesnel fra Basse-Normandie i Frankrike skal de neste tre månedene jobbe på VNBs kontor i Brussel. Nicolas har søkt seg til Vest-Norges Brusselkontor som en del av mastergradsprogrammet han gjennomfører ved Universitetet i Rennes. En mastergrad som kombinerer politikk, økonomi og juss.

Bakgrunnen for at han valgte å søke seg til et norsk regionskontor er hans interesse for nordiske land og nordisk kultur. Nicolas var i 2010 på ERASMUS-utveksling til Universitetet i Åbo (Turku) i Finland.

“As the first foreign intern of the West-Norway office in Brussels, this internship is for me a true challenge and a real chance as well. It would give me the opportunity to gain practical experience in Brussels and to deepen my understanding of how the relations between the EU and its regions are materialized.

This internship would be a wonderful springboard for my future. Later, I would like to work on regional issues and to specialize in areas such as sustainable development, renewable energies or environment, some of the main issues of the West-Norway.

I hope to contribute to the development of the office in Brussels, participate to its international dimension, bring a new perspective – that of a citizen of a member state, broaden the scope of its activities in Brussels through my participation in conferences, build bridges with new partners and of course, promote the assets of West Norway.” Nicolas Chesnel.
