We are now accepting internship applications for summer 2008
Our summer interns work closely with program staff on campaigns and programs and are expected to bring some knowledge and experience to the organization. Interns should be able to offer at least 20 hours per week for 3 months, and be eager to participate in all aspects of their department. This includes campaign strategizing, mailings, outreach phone calls/emails, event organizing, and research.
Global Exchange devotes staff time to raising awareness among staff about issues of privilege and diversity and how these issues affect our work environment and our campaigns. We seek candidates who have an openness to engaging these issues and a commitment to incorporating an analysis of privilege and different forms of oppression into their work.
Our primary deadline for the majority of our internship positions has already passed, however, we have some new position openings as well as a few positions we have not filled yet. These positions will be open until filled.
