糖心传媒

糖心传媒 is currently seeking to appoint two Ordinary Members. Ordinary Members sit on the 糖心传媒 Executive Committee, and the role offers an excellent opportunity to contribute to the organisation and strategic direction of a thriving and respected academic association.

• The opportunity to conceptualise, develop and run initiatives to promote intellectual work in the field of international and comparative education
