ONE is a global non-profit organization focused on raising public awareness about the issues of global poverty, hunger, disease and efforts to fight such problems in the world’s poorest countries.
ONE offers a number of office-based internship positions (Washington D.C., London, and Berlin) throughout the spring, summer and fall. Interns will be exposed to multiple facets of ONE and be actively engaged in departmental work such as: grassroots mobilization, field organizing, internet projects, communications and global operations.
Qualifications: To be eligible for an internship at ONE, candidates must be undergraduate level students with a minimum of sophomore status or recent graduates within 6 months of completing their undergraduate degree. ONE’s internship program does not currently accommodate graduate level students.
Day to day duties may include: research and fact-checking, trips and events preparation, collection of press clips, database management, and administrative tasks. Interns are required to work a minimum of 15 hours per week and can work up to 35 hours per week. During the summer term, preference will be given to interns who are available to work full-time. A small stipend is provided based on the number of hours worked per week or students can receive academic credit consistent with their university’s guidelines (Please Note: interns are not eligible to earn both a stipend and academic credit). Also, housing is not provided and interns are responsible for making their own housing arrangements.
Internship Term Periods:
Summer Term 2010: June 7th to August 13th, 2010
Fall Term 2010: September 13th to December 10th, 2010
