INTERNATIONAL PROJECTS

mpi undertake short-term (up to 2 weeks) assignments on international projects.

​

We have had a long history of working internationally, which began when we were still at the BBC and working on what is now BBC Media Action in the former Soviet Union countries, with educational programming, training and development projects for donors like the British Government and the EU TACIS programme.
