Remote NGO Internships
Here are a few examples of roles that our NGO interns have taken on before:
Fundraising
Securing funds is an essential part of running any NGO. Interns will learn about applying for various types of governmental and private funding, drafting grant applications, and developing action plans regarding the distribution of acquired funds.
Social Media Management
Social media plays an important role in spreading awareness and engaging the public. An inexpensive and effective way to reach millions of people around the world, interns will have the opportunity to create and maintain content plans, as well as propose and execute social media campaigns.
Event Planning
To raise money, create awareness, and garner support for various initiatives, NGOs will host events. Interns will have the opportunity to plan and execute virtual events, source funding, invite guest speakers, and secure pledges.
Content Creation
To create awareness for an initiative, NGOs must ensure that their content is engaging. Interns who are more creatively inclined will have the opportunity to craft visual and written content for print, websites, and social media platforms.
The NGO Industry
The NGO sector is made up of many organizations operating around the globe. The largest and most prominent NGOs, such as Amnesty International, the Red Cross, and the World Wildlife Fund are multinational and have teams in almost every country in the world. NGO internships offer an opportunity to develop the skills and expertise needed to effectively contribute to solving the many societal issues we face today. It’s not only about gaining experience, but also gaining exposure and learning to take on life’s biggest challenges head-on, from a different perspective. From malnutrition to famine, drought to depression and so much more, the opportunities to learn and experience are aplenty.
