Meet Our Interns! - Boris Klinka

by Elisa Giannozzi

Name: Boris Klinka
Date of Birth: 03.10.1974
Nationality: French

Boris has undertaken this internship at the Czech Helsinki Committee after completing a 6-month course on Project Management for International Solidarity in 2015. He would like to improve his management skills and possibly become a project manager for an NGO. Boris is a very versatile person with many interests, a diversity reflected in his career before having the aspiration of becoming a project manager. For example, he has had several different work environments, among which a board game company and a bank can be found. Boris has also volunteered for the French Red Cross and holds a certificate to teach French to foreigners.

Boris would like to know more about Czech culture and politics, and therefore the internship at the Czech Helsinki Committee allows him the possibility to fulfil this ambition and practically apply the knowledge he gained during the Project Management course.

Boris is very interested in cultures other than his own and he is widely travelled — having journeyed through Japan, Russia, USA and several European countries. For this reason, Boris would like to find a job, in France, that requires travelling to several destinations throughout the year.
