An announcement of public examination has been published for the selection of 114 volunteers to employ in projects of National Civil Service at the University of Padua.

The Human Rights Centre has proposed the project Volunteers in an editorial unit: communicate human rights and enhance peace, for the selection of 4 volunteers.

  • Research, elaboration and publication of editorial contents and documentation and updating of the various sections of the website of the Interdepartmental Centre;
  • Writing and publication of multimedial contents;
  • Updates on the activities and initiatives of the United Nations and of international and regional bodies, with particular attention to the promotion of the recurrences established by the United Nations;
