Background Information
Objectives of the Programme
The
UNFPA Internship Programme offers a small group of outstanding students
the opportunity to acquire direct exposure to UNFPA operations. It is
designed to complement development-oriented studies with practical
experience in various aspects of UNFPA work.
Applicants should have
expressed interest in the field of development; ability to adapt to new
environments and work with individuals from different cultural
backgrounds. Interns work under the supervision of a staff member at
UNFPA. The background of the interns is matched with the needs of the
organization.

Financial Aspects
The
costs associated with an intern's participation in the programme must
be assumed either by the students themselves or by the nominating
institution, which may provide the required financial assistance to its
students. Students will have to meet living expenses as well as make
their own arrangements for accommodation, travel and other requirements.
In addition, applicants must have medical insurance for the duration of
the internship. Proof of insurance will need to be submitted before the
internship begins.
Recommended:
Interns are not financially remunerated by UNFPA for their work but may receive a stipend to help cover basic daily expenses related to the internship, such as meals and transportation at the duty station, when not financially supported by any institution or programme, such as a university, government, foundation, or scholarship programme. All costs related to travel, insurance, accommodation, and other living expenses must be borne by either the intern or the intern's sponsoring institution.
Closing Date: 31 December 2020
