I had an amazing time during my internship at Crop Trust, and I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunity!
I had been aspiring to do an internship at Crop Trust ever since I started my master’s in Agricultural Sciences at the University of Bonn. When I first learned about Crop Trust, I was inspired by its mission to conserve crop diversity worldwide. Getting the opportunity to join as an intern truly felt like a dream come true!
During my internship, I had the chance to learn about project management and gained a deeper understanding of how important genebanks are for safeguarding crop diversity. I’m also really happy that I had the opportunity to support the BOLD Project—these experiences have enriched my skills and broadened my perspective in ways I will always carry with me.
