Works at the Irish Department of Foreign Affairs
My name is Doreen Burke, I'm a Third Secretary in the Irish Department of Foreign Affairs, currently working at the Latin America and Carribean Regional Desk (from home, given current COVID19 restrictions).
Since graduating from IMP in 2016, I've completed a stage at the European Parliament and worked as a lobbyist for Irish business in Brussels before embarking on my current career path as a junior diplomat in October 2019. The IMP programme was an essential component of my career development, equipping me with the skills needed to succeed in an international public policy environment. Thanks, IMP!
